HANK BEE CORNER

Brought to our attention by Memorials of Distinction, 'Corner' is the contemplative debut single from Hank Bee. Navigating one of life's many intersections, 'Corner' captures the emotional landscape of change, loss, and longing that sits at the heart of Hank Bee’s songwriting. Sonically lilting yet entirely focussed, flickers of alt-country shine through the predominantly indie-rock soundscape as guitars drive section after section of accomplished vocal melodies. Lyrically longing for guidance and connection Hank Bee explains: “I remember feeling lost out at sea - my partner was away travelling, a friendship had ended, and I was unsure of what direction my life was heading. The lyric ‘at the corner of the season and the night I try to adhere’ sort of fell out of me. It’s about that point of transition - being at the corner of something, at a crossroads.” Hailing from Liverpool since 2016, Hank Bee will be making her London debut supporting label-mates (and fellow TMR tips) SUEP at the Windmill Brixton on 11th December. -Holly Mullineaux
