Hannah Maryse is a British singer-songwriter who doesn't sound anything like an artist from England. On her debut single, "Oh Honey, No," Maryse sounds like a modern indie pop musician who just discovered a collection of Laurel Canyon hits from the 70's. The song has a wonderfully twangy take on psychedelic pop music revised to sound like it's from this century. "Oh Honey, No" is such an interesting and inventive take on a sound from fifty years ago updated for today. And then you add in what certainly sounds like banjo, and the song steps up it's own charm factor. Seriously, if you don't love Hannah Maryse after listening to her debut song, you may not be able to feel joy.
Hannah Maryse says of her new single and video:
"I wrote this after spiralling over and eventually accepting a parting of ways. We shot mostly in slow-mo on Cofette - this insanely desolate beach - to create a disoriented woozy feeling. For the chorus, we flipped it - filming fast then slowing down to capture the euphoria of letting go."
