Hana Piranha Reflects on Dark, Abusive Relationship with Release of New Single ‘Lorelei’

Hana Piranha’s latest single, ‘Lorelei,’ is a raw, sultry, at times aggressive, yet consistently powerful alternative anthem. Featured on her upcoming album ‘Wingspan,’ ‘Lorelei’ delves into Hana’s experience of an abusive relationship, inviting listeners to join in the healing process, not only through the music but also through the visceral vulnerability that drives her.

In discussing the single, Hana Piranha revealed, “Lorelei was inspired by my ex-boyfriend, who I was in a really abusive relationship with. I feel lucky to have actually survived that relationship, it was just really dark, so the song is about that quite explicitly. I chose Lorelei, a mythical mermaid who lures sailors to their deaths, so it makes it a bit of a revenge song too. It’s why we chose to make the music video underwater.”

Filmed against the sun-soaked beaches of Cannes in the south of France, the accompanying music video for ‘Lorelei’ offers a contrast with its glamorous location, yet it perfectly encapsulates the emotions and narrative of ‘Lorelei.’ It highlights Hana Piranha’s deep understanding that great music often pushes boundaries.

Upon hearing ‘Lorelei’ and watching the video, one can discern Hana Piranha’s influences. The song features catchy synth lines reminiscent of bands like Muse or Nine Inch Nails, emotive string arrangements akin to PJ Harvey, and the presence of powerful guitars that are characteristic of great rock anthems. Above all, Hana Piranha’s distinctive and emotive voice, which alternates between purring and wailing, stands out. From the opening line, “Ask me who I are,” to the resounding call of “LORELEI,” it becomes evident that Hana Piranha is a frontwoman deserving of respect and admiration.

Hana Piranha’s new single, ‘Lorelei,’ is now available on all major streaming platforms, while her upcoming album ‘Wingspan’ is set for a worldwide release on November 17, 2023.
