Hanna Kristall is an Austrian born singer, film producer and designer with Mexican and Polish roots, who is commuting between Berlin, New York and Vienna. After her first pop/funk - album 'Lady Mechanic' she surprises with a new sound: electropop. Together with her music producer, a sound artist based in Berlin, she is developing her sonic identity, currently fusioning electronical pop beats with her versatile voice. A voice that is being described as emotion-awakening, embodying the depth of soul, the lightness of pop and the in-your-face-attitude of rap. Her latest single u know is a trap song: bass heavy, spherical and a little bit dark. The track is strongly reminiscent of some songs from The Weeknd and feels a bit like after hours in the club. 

Hanna Kristall started her musical path in the pulsating city of LA with the recording of her debut album ‘Lady Mechanic’ in 2017. She got it produced by Stacey Lamont Sydnor, drummer and producer, who works with the likes of Missy Elliott, Stevie Wonder and The Jacksons and first played her album live at the legendary "Viper Room" on Sunset Strip. Back in Vienna she took her music on stage at the Donauinselfest, Europe’s largest open-air music festival, where she started making her name as a deep feeling and energy charged live performer.

 

Strongly inspired by LA’s music scene she felt like her musical identity had only started to awaken and went on to work with producer Daniel Karelly, mastermind of his then-band 'Rakede'. Together they are working on her music, crafting her sonic vision and giving each song time and space to develop on its own pace. 

 

Hanna is expected to release her new music in 2025. 

 

Meanwhile she gets inspiration from her other passions: movies and fashion. Hanna is a well sought film producer and has been working on movies with Guy Ritchie, Stephen Frears, Kate Winslet, Natalie Portman, John Krasinski, … 

 

She has also been working on her t-shirt collection BAUHAUS, that will be available on her website soon. The BAUHAUS collection combines a minimalistic design with the highest possible quality.

 

You can spot her on stage on different occasions as a singer or as a speaker on panel discussions. Live shows are announced on her website and all social media channels.
