Widely acclaimed singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and artistic visionary Hannah Wicklund has released her new single ‘Witness’ taken from her forthcoming album Live At The Troubadour out March 7th via Strawberry Moon Records available to pre-order now here.
Live At The Troubadour was recorded at her March 2024 performance at the legendary Troubadour in Los Angeles as part of her Hell In The Hallway world tour. The album captures the entire concert performed with her full band featuring her hits and fan favorites from across her two hugely praised albums Hannah Wicklund and the Steppin Stones (2018) and The Prize (2024).
‘Witness’ is an empowering anthem taken from The Prize and is a deeply personal song about claiming heartbreak, embracing it and using that to heal through some of the toughest times in life. However personal, it has also proved a firm fan favourite as demonstrated at the Troubadour show receiving a rapturous response from the capacity crowd who sing along word for word.
Regarding ‘Witness’ Hannah says, “Getting into your first relationship as a strong, driven, and young woman, it’s very difficult to experience someone dim your light, but even harder to recognise it. Insecurities within young people play out in terrifying ways, and it’s very hard to not absorb other people’s darkness. ‘Witness’ was the awareness I found in myself that it is not my responsibility to save anyone.”
Following the Hell In The Hallway world tour which saw Hannah perform sold out shows throughout North America, the UK and Europe, Hannah continued to carve an impressive live path in 2024 and played to capacity arenas across North America in support of Deep Purple. Hannah Wicklund has more live dates for 2025 to be announced soon.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM FOR HANNAH WICKLUND
“The Prize has enormous freshness. Sometimes even far from the bluesy influences, the young American began to flirt a little more with folk and soft rock while offering loaded and, why not, dramatic compositions. The guitar work remains exemplary, but there seemed to have been greater concern with the vocals, masterful around here.”
Rolling Stone Brazil (No.1 Rock Record 2024 critics’ choice by Igor Miranda)
"Hannah Wicklund is nothing like any artist you have experienced before... It's incredible music; moving, heartbreaking, inspiring... Hannah fills her music not with just heaps of passion and love, but also an unwavering feminine aggression that could only be compared to the likes of Alanis Morissette or Stevie Nicks. Yeah, big shoes to fill, I know - but Hannah does it effortlessly.”
Daily Express
“The South Carolinian is not of her time, and is more intriguing for that. Keening vocals, raw expression and squally blues-rock are Wicklund’s stock in trade, and they give her narratives of female agency power, without slipping into pastiche.”
Sunday Times Culture
“The Prize exults in its bracing rock classicism. Its modes are big, bigger and biggest. Wicklund has the songs, the voice and the guitar chops to back up this ambitious sense of scale.”
Metro
“The 27-year-old reiterates her mastery of the guitar and homespun, aching vocals on The Prize.”
Daily Mail
“She’s a special talent, rising fast.”
Classic Rock
"Hannah Wicklund always looked like a special talent.”
Kerrang
“Shows just what she is capable of.”
Guitarist
“It showcases the South Carolina star’s powerhouse vocals and multi-instrumentalism.”
Sunday Mirror
“Not only is Hannah a truly stunning guitarist, but her piano work and vocals are quite simply breathtaking.”
Powerplay
“Wicklund clearly has an abundance of talent.”
Fireworks
“The Prize sees both her showstopping musical prowess and deft touch for the visual arts come to the forefront.”
1883 Magazine
"The record is a compelling and triumphant pulverizing dedication of pop, blues, rock and high-spirited energy embracing self-love, and echoes of coming of age. With Hannah’s songs it’s about going beyond the ordinary. She orgasmically captures the essence of the vibrancy of a kaleidoscope. Her songs are filled with texture, colour and a lot of heart.”
