King Hannah at Elsewhere

King Hannah at Elsewhere
April 18. 7PM. $30.44

King Hannah is an indie-rock duo from Liverpool consisting of singer and songwriter Hannah Merrick and guitarist Craig Whittle. Their latest album, Big Swimmer, seems to be the result of Merrick’s observations after touring around the United States, where it wasn’t the big cities or expansive vistas that inspired her songs, but the little moments and conversations and observations – details that inspire songs that can be drily funny, unsettling, or both. She also toggles between a kind of pitched speech and outright singing on tracks like  “New York, Let’s Do Nothing.” King Hannah plays April 18 at Elsewhere.
