Harbour Violet (vocal, guitar) from Hamburg, whose real name is Jana Hansmann, is a solo guest at ‘Blauer Mittwoch’. Her music is a poppy mix with funk, soul and jazz influences.
Harbour Violet is literally a haven of real-life stories about personal experiences, self-discovery processes and plot twists, which musician Jana Hansmann skillfully dresses in a garment of groovy guitars and charismatic voice.
More about Harbour Violet
Ever since Jana Hansmann, a Hamburg native and all-round creative, saw Avril Lavigne twirling through the MTV program with an electric guitar at the age of 11, it was clear to her that music would take a permanent place in her life
. Today, the singer-songwriter is firmly anchored in the Hamburg music scene and thrills audiences in legendary clubs, at various festivals and in professional streaming formats.
After several band and choir projects, she decided in 2018 to perform as Harbour Violet and consolidate her artistic identity. Her music can be described as a poppy mix of funk, soul and jazz influences, and Harbour Violet never tires of expanding her musical horizons. This can be clearly heard
on her first EP entitled "Crying in a Sparkly Dress", which was released on 17.12.2021.
Two years later (17.12.2023), Harbour Violet released the live EP "The Elevate Sessions", a snapshot of her artistic development - towards becoming an experienced musician and songwriter, supported by a new, authentic sound from her three-piece band.
