HANNIS, “Firebreak”
It’s been a hot second since I was raving about Hannis’ debut single “Time Has Come”, the unique Europop-meets-dubstep tune that ended up as my #20 song of 2014. Sticking with the same innovative production team, but co-writing “Firebreak” herself, Hannis builds on the notoriety achieved by “Time Has Come” with a more pop radio friendly song. But whereas “Time Has Come” focused on the softer and more delicate tones of her voice, “Firebreak” shows what a powerhouse Hannis can be when interpreting the emotion of her song against a feverish melody. “Firebreak” is one crackerjack electronic pop song and should continue to attract worthy attention for Hannis. And while it wasn’t released until January of this year, you can get a glimpse of the singer at last by watching the video for “Time Has Come” below. Get both songs on iTunes.
