Happy to share with you the debut of Italian singer/songwriter HÅN. Her first track "The Children" is a beautiful guitar-driven indie/pop song and if you dig Daughter, you'll fall in love with her voice. Actually, the Daughter comparison is just half true. I guess there is some nice overlap when it comes to her soothing vocals, but "The Children" eventually transforms into rather intense & refreshing track. A track which will make you forget the world for a bit.

When it comes to the history and inspiration behind the track, she shares:

When I write something I'm used to building lines in a way that the final song is a complex of concepts that stands on its own. I like every line to have its own life. I love the lyrics to be a bit hermetic and not to go in only one direction, as they were a sort of mystery that has to be solved and interpreted by the listener.  'The Children' is like someone running away from the things that they know and from the place in which they always been, becoming aware of the oppression of 'the safe place'. At the same time, they feel like they’re inevitably bound to their home. It’s a kind of ambivalent feeling of both growing and missing what you leave by living this process.
