Michaela Hall uncovers a raw, hard-hitting hug of a new song by SwanNek
If you’re a jazz fan, you’ve probably already heard of Newcastle-based jazz collective SwanNek. They gained many loyal followers from their live shows and have skyrocketed since, even taking to the MOBO stage earlier this year. Their new single Memories is incredible in its ability to explore something really hard-hitting in such a comforting and hopeful way.
The single deals with grief and loss and the importance of those good memories that never die and will always be with us. The beautiful soft tones and rhythms combined with the raw and honest lyrics are an emotional roller-coaster, a powerful hug in a song – uniting us with something universal.
