Hanna Turi

Hanna grew up in Falun, Dalarna, with a strong innate interest and urge to create. Singing had always been a part of her, but it was not until she tried writing songs that she realized what she really wanted to be. She slowly started to learn how to play the piano in her early teens. But since her piano teacher wasn’t particularly impressed with Hannas’ playing technique, she carried on by herself and developed until the piano eventually became a natural part of her. With the piano as her best friend, Hanna Turi grew from the many years as an insecure teenage girl to a skilled musician, songwriter and singer. 2008 was the year when Hanna Turi won the title ”Best Singer/Songwriter” in the nation wide competition ’Music Direct’; and a few years later she released her first single ’This Time’. Her critically acclaimed debut album ’Some Old Tapes’, was released in January 2011, and was followed by a US tour. Despite her humble age of 22, Hanna Turi has already begun a steady career and is expected to deliver more of her passionate piano based pop next year.
