Hannah Read on making music through the landscape

How to capture the sound of something humans can’t hear? How to make a song about a mushroom? That was the challenge put to Scottish musician, Hannah Read, in the wake of her father’s death. Hannah, who lives in California, fell into an earthy world of mycelium in 2020, and her album, The Fungi Sessions, captures a growing fascination with fungi in through beautiful folk music. We were fortunate enough to catch Hannah while she was in her Edinburgh hometown before she went on a UK Tour. At the city’s Botanic Gardens, she told us about falling in love with music on the Isle of Eigg, her relationship with the landscape and what she’s learned from the earth - as well as treating us to an al fresco performance.
