Based in Newcastle, Hannah Robinson is a dreamgaze artist creating shoegazey alt-rock, shaped by anxiety, curiosity, romance, and emotional uncertainty. Her sound is dreamy and immersive, built around ethereal vocals, distortion-soaked guitars, and rich atmospheric textures. Through themes of people-pleasing, self-awareness, and growth, her songs trace the quiet process of learning who you are and who you want to become.
‘Ruining The Moment’ is a raw and restless grunge anthem that captures the chaos of losing yourself when you need to hold it together. Channelling the spirit of 90s icons like Nirvana, Hole, and Soundgarden, the track fuses tortured vocals with eerie, slow-burn guitars, like Courtney Love crashing a Coach Party rehearsal. Laced with guilt, shame, and inner frustration, it’s a gut-punching dive into the silent panic behind a composed exterior. As the tension builds, the song explodes in a chorus that screams what can’t be said out loud; a soundtrack for anyone who’s ever felt like a stranger in their own skin.
Diving deeper about ‘Ruining The Moment’, Hannah explains: “A few years back, I played a gig thinking it’d be good fun, until I completely lost control. I felt like a stranger in my own body, holding in a panic attack through the whole set. The second I got off stage, I broke down. It felt like I’d ruined everything, especially in front of a crowd of people I’d never met. I wrote ‘Ruining The Moment’ to scream about how your own mind can turn on you when you need it most. I looked calm, but inside I was falling apart. I hope this song reaches the people who know that feeling too well.”
