Philippa Hanna, the U.K.’s answer to Taylor Swift is returning to the spotlight with her brand new album Come Back Fighting.
Most of her sixth studio album was written in Nashville, and she has brought together a range of pop, country and gospel influences, assembling an impressive collection of musicians. With features from B.B.C. Radio 2 presenter Paul Jones on harmonica, world-champion banjo player John Dowling and a leading U.K. gospel choir. Working with long-term collaborators guitarist Roo Walker and manager Andy Baker, the production has a fresh and unique flavour that won’t leave fans disappointed
The album is set for release on 24th November, amidst Philippa opening a formidable 29 date U.K. tour for BGT winning vocal group Collabro which will be coming to the Liverpool Philharmonic Hall on Tuesday 24th October.
From the acoustic-reggae infused Dorothy to the hard hitting bluesy title track Come Back Fighting, listeners can expect to be drawn into the storytelling narrative that has put Hanna on the singer/songwriter map. The album succeeds in catering for an incredibly broad fan-base that has seen the Sheffield singer open tours for the likes of Lionel Richie, Little Mix, Leona Lewis, Anastacia, and Marti Pellow.
Tickets for Collabro with Philippa Hanna as support on Tuesday 24th October are on sale from the Philharmonic Hall now.
