Jhana Allan

Phone: 0404139058
Jhana Allan is a progressive country folk singer and multi instrumentalist who explores themes of darkness and light, loss and self-acceptance. Her original tunes range from slow moody ballads to up-beat foot-stomping country numbers. She is influenced by artists such as Bjork, Mountain Man, and Tom Waits. Jhana delivers raw, honest lyrics wrapped up in sunlit mandolin, fiddle, viola and piano, with driving rhythms and pure vocals. “A true songwriter”-The Wild Women of Anywhere Beach Praise for debut album, Darkest Night “With a powerfully sweet clear voice reminiscent of a young Kate Rusby, Jhana Allan sings her songs strong and true. This is a beautiful collection.” -Lucie Thorne
