A Bit Of Background:
Hannah Clive was raised in a family environment that centered on the Entertainment Industry - her father is a bestselling author/TV and Film actor and her mother worked for BBC Television.
So Hannah knew from an early age the routine and hard work required to succeed in the performing Arts and set off on her own into the Music Business to do just that.
As a child she was classicallytrained both on the piano and the flute, playing recitals and also doing various bits of dramatic work; including when sheauditioned for and got a part in Andrew Lloyd Webber's "Evita" which ran in London's Theatre District, The West End. She didthe show for two years alongside her schoolwork.
Amongst her contemporaries she was the youngest ever recipient for the prestigious "Speech andDrama Award - Grade 5" from the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art.
From the tender age of just fifteen on, Hannah began the serious business of getting into the Music industry both recordingand singing professionally as well as singing live.
She has played at all sorts of noteworthy venues including the 606, Chelsea in 2006 alongside Mr Ronnie Wood , The Borderline, Ronnie Scotts etc.
Hannah has accompanied tours both in the States (Roger Daltrey Sings The Music of Pete Townshend at just 21) and tours in England (Jools Holland, Alison Moyet etc).
She was also in the band Animal Soup with Simon Townsend and Zak Starkey
At seventeen she played at Johnny Dankworth and Cleo Laine's The Stables, Wavendon performing her own material at Jim Marshalls Birthday Bash
She's even played in a war zone: "...Well no-one else would go..it's alright we had a body-guard and hewas the local national Middleweight Boxing Champion!..".
Hannah had travelled first to Belgrade then on to Montenegro in the former Yugoslavia to perform at a benefit concert in aidof Yugoslav children that were victims of war. Despite the certainty that the show would be played at an outdoor arena in themiddle of a war zone, the band played on to an ecstatic crowd of nearly 10,000 and the concert was simulcast to a radioaudience spanning both Western and Eastern Europe.
Hannah has been busily working away on her own material which she is about to unveil on what will be her first albumproper. Something her live fans have been asking for for a long time.
She has worked on it with a number of classic old skoolers who put in an appearance, as well as some exciting and gifted young musicians guesting too. Watch this space...!
The album is shaping up to be a uniqueblend of pop and rock with the aid of guitar, classic songwriting and strong, soulful vocals that are sure to please.Watch this space for more details.
Armed with a fresh new sound, a new approachand of course, the new lineup, Hannah is nowunveilling her new material. Up until now....she's just been getting warmed up.
