Hank Bee

Hank Bee is the solo project of Liverpool-based, Northumbrian musician Hannah Brown.

Drawing from the folk and country traditions of the North-East while embracing the

intensity of alternative rock, her music offers lyrical candour wrapped in vivid guitar-led

arrangements. Performing alongside her band, their live shows have become a local

staple, blending reflective songwriting with epic, emotive performances.

The name Hank Bee originated as a happy accident – from a nickname and an old email

handle – but quickly became a fitting persona. “I liked the idea of an androgynous queer

woman going by Hank,” she says. “It harks back to male country singers of a certain

era, but I’m not a man and I don’t make traditional country music. It makes me giggle to

think of someone seeing the name and expecting a fella in a cowboy hat.”

Originally from Morpeth, Northumberland, Brown moved to Liverpool in 2016 and has

become a familiar face in its music scene. Her writing is shaped by place, identity, and a

fascination with the beauty and drudgery of the everyday.
