Hana (pronounced HENa) sometimes describes herself as a nomad, but at the end of day is lucky to call two communities ”˜home’. She hails from Amman, Jordan and has stitched Ann Arbor, MI permanently into her heart seams. Malhas chases summer every year from one region to the other, performing music whenever she gets the chance. On stages in both the U.S. and the Middle East, she is a storyteller with an expressive vocal delivery. JO Magazine’s Nick Seeley describes her as “a songstress with a 10,000-watt voice ”¦ it’s as if the music is taking over her body, channeling through her lungs in a sort of velvet explosion ”¦ she has an infectious smile, and a playful way of grooving onstage, performing with either piano or guitar.” Hana’s latest EP release, ”˜Hana Malhas & The Overthinkers" (2012), features the song “How We Love," nominated for the 12th annual Independent Music Award in the Folk/Singer-songwriter Song Category. The EP was co-produced by "The Voice" finalist Michelle Chamuel (Thick Glasses Music, Ella Riot, The Reverb Junkie), who added all vocal harmonies and instrumental arrangements.
