LISTEN TO "FROM HERE"
Lomelda has shared "From Here," the latest from her upcoming album, Thx. The FADER premiered the track, interviewed Hannah Read and called it "a warm track about distance and driving, about wanting to be found and seen." Thx is available for pre-order now and due out September 8th via Double Double Whammy.
Hannah Read, who performs under the moniker Lomelda, makes music that is textural and spacious. Her words are suggestive snapshots of loosely knitted observations, depicting quiet moments between friends and lovers and half-remembered celestial occurrences. In her songs, the memory of the past and glimpses of future stretch out on either side of you, and the present is unsteady and always shifting.
Lomelda is hitting the road with Pinegrove and Florist this fall. All dates below.

ABOUT LOMELDA:
If you were to ask Hannah Read what Lomelda means, you'd probably end up with some kind of non-answer and a new topic. It is a guarded secret reserved for those who really pry. It is a high school attempt at describing something vast and powerful yet uniquely quiet and complex. And it is ever-changing. Lomelda is about memory, intimacy, and the tragedies of distance. As a band, it has appeared in several forms over the years, but always, to Hannah, Lomelda has been about discovering friendship and connection. Close collaborators have become closer friends. And when you see Lomelda, when you hear it, it is apparent that Hannah cares deeply about the connection made with the people on stage, the connection with you.
