New Hania Rani release 10 Jan. Based on the track I've heard so far, it's going to be more beautiful stuff from her. Also seeing her at Chalk in Brighton was probably the best live sound at a gig I've ever experienced.

There are people who don't know, who didn't know. Moments like these are when they learn, and a window opens for people who want to turn their hunger for justice into action, for our numbers to increase. Stay mad and don't get jaded, in my opinion, get the newly passionate on board. 2/2
