Well, this is exciting...  "New Jewish Love Songs" is pretty much done.  It's been mastered.  The album art is nearly finished.  Those of you who are getting an early release for helping me out with my Kickstarter can probably expect it within the next fortnight!  Everyone else, I hope it will be ready on June 19th (my sweet, late dog, Kirby's birthday...  obviously this release date is crucial).

I'm getting really excited to release "It Is Upon Us" at the Black Fox Lounge on March 24th -- so I'm putting a few tracks up here... Just look under "Jewish Music." I hope you enjoy!

Check it out under "Jewish Music"! Click on the title of each song to read the lyrics/translation/story behind it. :) More are on the way!!!

My awesome bassist Michael Mountain had his friend take some videos of our show at Sweet last night. It was lots and lots of fun and at one point there were three people up with me! (Michael playing bass, Heather Lloyd from ilyAIMY playing djembe, and my good friend Chrissie Miller singing with me.) Enjoy!

Yaaaaay! It's available online at www.cdbaby.com/hannahspiro2, but if you can make it out to the album release party or any of my other shows this spring (info is on my calendar), CDs will be there as well.

The CD is finally finished! After lots and lots of time in the studio and some pauses in the process, all we're waiting on now is some odds and ends and then it's done. I'm really aiming for it to come out in hard copy in February, so get ready for some sort of awesome album release party around then.

Yay! "In Touch" won an honorable mention (among five) in the 11th Cooch Music Amateur Songwriting Contest. Check out www.coochmusic.com for info about the contest and the winners.

I just started the new CD yesterday. It's going to have somewhat of a different sound from the first, and I'm really excited to see how this goes. In case you don't know, Carl Rushing (www.gemstarpro.com) produced my last album and he's producing my new one; he's a genius so check him out.

I'm really happy to be in this zine (page 55, to be exact), because generally I'm lumped in with the folkies but this BET-inspired, bling-infused webzine feels me as well! =) It's a very well done publication so be sure to take a look for yourself.

Hey guys! I have a bunch of new shows up on the calendar so be sure to stop by sometime this fall/winter. College applications are kicking my butt so if you see me arriving to a cafe, etc. with an exasperated look on my face, the aforementioned evils are probably the culprits!
