Hannah Jadagu - Aperture (Loser Edition)

Sub Pop - SP1544X

Fresh out of high school, Hannah Jadagu released her debut EP, What Is Going On?, a collection of intimate bedroom pop tracks recorded entirely on an iPhone 7, which was, at the time, Jadagu's most accessible mode of production. An off-the-cuff approach to music making and instinctive ability to write unforgettable hooks belied the intensity of Jadagu's subject matter. In a short run time, What Is Going On? confronts some of the nation's most urgent struggles all through Jadagu's compassionate perspective. "I want my songs to be both super intimate and still universally relatable," Jadagu says. "With the EP, so many people told me that the songs resonated with them on a personal level, and that's what I'm always hoping for."

Resonate it did; What Is Going On? is Jadagu's first Sub Pop release, but she'd been putting out music on SoundCloud for years, garnering a small online fanbase as she settled into an aesthetic, and recognition from a broader audience was overdue. "It really took off when I became a percussionist in my middle school's band," she says. "Writing songs started as a hobby and quickly became a passion to the point that I spent all my free time recording."
