"Miss Peel has created a textural collection of pure pop, delicate chamber pieces and analogue electronics that should by rights position her as one of our foremost emergent female voices"
4* review - Record Collector Magazine

The Northern Irish artist, singer and electronic composer and member of the The Magnetic North, Hannah Peel will be performing live with her electronic solo setup her new album 'Awake But Always dreaming' out 23rd september 2016. This year, her recent collaborations with Beyond The Wizard’s Sleeve (aka Erol Alkan & Richard Norris) - was featured on two BBC6 playlisted singles ‘Diagram Girl’ and ‘Creation’ and her band The Magnetic North released their critically acclaimed follow up LP Prospect Of Skelmersdale in March. She has also been composing under her new synth-based, space-age alter-ego Mary Casio with an experimental piece combining analogue electronics and a 33-piece colliery brass band (it debuted to a sold out Manchester audience in May). Although modestly she shies away from any comparison, it’s little wonder The Observer recently described Peel as ‘a great singer and a latter day Delia Derbyshire.’
