POLLY POCKET

Hanna Leess returns with "Polly Pocket," the first single from her upcoming album Innocent as a Rose. This track showcases her talent for fusing genres while delivering an intimate reflection on childhood joy and imagination. Built on pop elements with a glitchy Jupiter synthesizer backdrop, the song combines synth-pop, country twang, and lo-fi jazz experimentation.

Leess’ soothing yet raw vocals capture the bittersweet vulnerability of embracing multiple identities. Her lyrics remind us that despite self-doubt, we can find freedom in pretending and exploring without fear.

A fixture in Berlin’s eclectic music scene, Leess has performed at Reeperbahn Festival and Iceland Airwaves, sharing the stage with artists like José González and Damien Rice. After a four-year hiatus, "Polly Pocket" marks her triumphant return, hinting at the deeply personal and adventurous nature of Innocent as a Rose. This single firmly establishes Hanna Leess as a distinctive voice in today’s independent music landscape.
