Lomelda is the music project of songwriter/composer Hannah Read. She began using the name "Lomelda" for her music releases in 2008 or so. The current (2021-) line up of the band includes Andrew Hulett, Alex Peterson, Sam Jordan and Mari Maurice. She also consistently collaborates with her brother, producer/engineer/musician, Tommy Read, who runs Lazybones Studio in their hometown of Silsbee, TX. Lomelda’s music is inspired by all things human. As you listen you will hear about the struggle for humans to connect with each other and some bits about those occasions when somehow the distance collapses. You will hear jolly and mourning and everything in between. It is quiet music sometimes, and pretty raucous at other times. Good fun, good sad, with melody, harmony and rhythm. photos by Jake Dapper
