Hanne Leland, a Norwegian pop artist and songwriter, brings in the holiday season with her new album, The Christmas Songs. The songs are warm, nostalgic, and have a modern twist. This 9-track collection is Hanne's first Christmas project. It mixes well-known songs with heartfelt originals, all wrapped in her signature emotional clarity and soft-pop style. The album is 24 minutes and 35 seconds long and is easy to listen to. It sounds like a slow snowfall on a quiet winter morning.
Hanne Leland is still a great storyteller and singer, with over 17 million Spotify streams and past tour support slots with well-known artists like Gavin James, Greyson Chance, and All Saints. The Christmas Songs shows exactly why her music has gotten good reviews from well-known places like CLASH, The Line of Best Fit, Galore, and Norway's Aftenposten and Dagsavisen.
"This Time of Year," the best song on the album, perfectly captures the mix of happiness and sadness that comes with the holidays. Hanne's voice is warm and personal, like a handwritten note from someone you haven't seen in a while. It's a gentle reminder of what's really important during the holidays.
Her version of "Winter Wonderland" is full of charm and gives a new twist to a holiday classic. The production is clear and calming, which lets her voice shine through without losing the song's timelessness.
"Blue Christmas" is another great song that shows how well Hanne can interpret famous Christmas music with a lot of feeling. Her soft-pop twist gives the song a modern, soft feel that is perfect for anyone who wants a break from the holiday rush.
The Christmas Songs is a warm sound escape that mixes tradition with realness. Hanne Leland's music takes listeners to a festive world where old memories meet new ones. It's the perfect music for cozy nights, holiday get-togethers, or quiet times alone. This album is a refreshing reminder of Hanne's artistry and emotional presence, whether you're hearing her for the first time or have followed her career through her well-known releases.
