In celebration of the June 21st 2024 solstice Strawberry Moon, Hannah Wicklund has released ‘Strawberry Moon (Live at the Troubadour)’. It is the lead single from her forthcoming live album out this autumn via Flatiron Recordings and Hannah’s own Strawberry Moon Records.
Recorded at her March 2024 performance at the legendary Troubadour in Los Angeles as part of her Hell In The Hallway world tour, ‘Strawberry Moon (Live at the Troubadour)’ gives listeners the first taste of what is destined to take its place among iconic live rock records.
Regarding the song and special edition record Hannah says, “Tonight’s full moon marks seven years since I sat on my stoop in East Nashville at 4am and wrote the song that carved my path like no other, ‘Strawberry Moon’. I wanted to create a special version of this album that honoured the song that carried me to this point and featured the stunning artwork my mother created for me many years ago.
“Each record comes signed and numbered 1-500, distributed in order of purchase, and includes a sweet little surprise as well as a custom Strawberry Moon journal for you to store all of your wildest dreams in. After all, every one of us has got dreams to be thinking of…”
The Live at The Troubadour: Strawberry Moon Special Edition double LP is limited to 500 copies and available to purchase now here. The album will also be available across all streaming platforms and standard physical formats with more details to follow soon.
The forthcoming live album spans Hannah Wicklund’s catalogue, featuring music from her widely acclaimed 2024 album The Prize as well as earlier, signature compositions such as ‘Shadowboxes & Porcelain Faces’, ‘Mama Said’, ‘Bomb Through the Breeze’, and more.
“Performing music for a live audience is such a beautiful exchange of energy, and certainly the place I find my balance and inner peace” says Hannah. “It has always been an intimate experience for me and one that cannot be recreated or replicated the same way twice. The night of my first headlining show at The Troubadour was the first time I have been able to capture and harness that experience to be shared, and it was a magical and monumental moment in my life I will never forget. Truly one for the books.
“My latest record The Prize means the absolute world to me, so having my first live record come of the tour where I found my footing as not only an artist, but most importantly as a woman, is indescribably perfect. The path to this point has been strife with obstacles, but Live at The Troubadour now serves as living proof that believing in yourself and your dreams is always a worthy cause, whoever you may be.”
