Hannah Winkler

For more than a decade, Hannah Winkler has lent her voice, musicianship, and quiet fire to other artists’ visions. Now, with the release of her first full-length album, the Brooklyn-based songwriter and multi-instrumentalist steps fully into her own light—crafting a collection of songs that are as emotionally raw as they are sonically lush. After touring and recording with artists like Lorde, Ingrid Michaelson, and A Great Big World, and as a member of beloved bands like Secret Someones, Human Natural, and Weird Years, Winkler’s solo work arrives with hard-won self-possession. These are songs that refuse to shrink, even in their most delicate moments.

Hannah Winkler’s self-titled record is a work for sensitive souls. Produced by longtime collaborators Zach Jones and Oscar Albis Rodriguez, the album is a self-contained world—performed and arranged entirely by the trio. Recorded primarily at Studio G in Brooklyn, the songs blend rock’s urgency, folk’s intimacy, and the melodic pull of classic pop. What emerges is an unflinching, deeply personal portrait of an artist embracing the full spectrum of feeling: navigating shifting friendships, chronic pain, the long echoes of shame, the slow work of healing, and the quiet triumph of finding her voice.

Released in partnership with Grand Phony Music Company, Hannah Winkler’s self-titled record aligns her with a growing lineage of artists reimagining modern rock through a personal lens—think Madison Cunningham, Madi Diaz, Waxahatchee, or Soccer Mommy. “There’s freedom in telling the truth,” Winkler seems to say throughout the album—not with bravado, but with clarity and calm force.
