Hannah Cohen is a name that I’ve been noticing for a while, but, for one reason or another, I haven’t really given her the listening time. And, yes, my “Single Of The Week” column can sometimes run a bit like personal diary. But I’ve been dealing with an abrupt passing of my mom this week, and I haven’t really been able to focus on anything at all. Then my kid go the flu and everything became messy. I wasn’t even going to do a column this week. But I put the kid down for a nap, and had a moment of silence where I decided to take a look at my inbox and saw this Hannah Cohen email sitting there unread for two weeks. I clicked on the track and listened. I took in a beautiful and bright piece of music and for the first time all week, I was able to feel a sense of peace. So, yeah, thank you Ms Cohen. Thank you, “Summer Sweat.”
“Summer Sweat” is off Hannah Cohen’s latest record, Earthstar Mountain, available now from Congrats Records.
