about
Hannah Jadagu is an indie pop singer, songwriter and producer from Mesquite, TX, now residing in New York, NY, United States. Her five-song debut EP, What Is Going On? (2021), released on Sub Pop, encapsulates the thoughts, hopes, and fears of growing up as a young black woman in the U.S. with themes of empowerment and a wise-beyond-her-years worldview weaved throughout. The EP was recorded and produced all through her iPhone 7 using Garageband iOS, an iRig, microphone, and guitar. Her debut studio album Aperture (2023) released through Sub Pop is her most ambitious work to date. Written in the years between graduating from high school in Mesquite, TX and her sophomore year of college in New York, Aperture finds Jadagu in a state of transition. “Where I grew up, everyone is Christian; even if you don’t go to church, you’re still practicing in some form,” Jadagu says, laughing. “Moving out of my small hometown has made me reflect on how embedded Christianity is in the culture down there, and though I’ve been questioning my relationship to the church since high school, it’s definitely a theme on this album, but so is family.” User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
