Music that holds you while you cry: Hannah Sandoz's arrangements weave tender lyrics and lush soundscapes for guitar, vocals, and laptop. 


Sandoz first started writing songs as a teen, building their first portfolio with scrappy recording techniques and candid lyrics. Studying music composition and production at the Oberlin Conservatory forged their songwriting into a reverent practice exploring tenderness, shared experiences, and emotional memory.  This is embodied in "all of god", from their latest EP, MF/HS. In this track, Sandoz's voice gradually builds and swells, shifting from harmony into dissonance with ease before reaching a lonesome climax. 
 

MF / HS was released in October 2025, four years after Sandoz relocated to Chicago. To promote its release, they toured across the west coast, covering 6,000mi in 2 weeks. They performed at independent venues like Junior High (LA) and Kilowatt (San Francisco). In addition to touring frequently, Sandoz has opened local shows for acts like Ben Seretan and American Poetry Club. 

​

Hannah Sandoz’s ethereal vocals and gauzy instrumentals take on a rural allure that will resonate with fans of Adrianne Lenker, Grouper, or Animal Collective.​
