about

Soho tells the story of love through life, the passion and intimacy that we experience with those who find their way to our hearts, even when we know it might only be temporary. We hope it will bring you on a journey to look inward, just as it did for us.

An emotional piece that pushes and pulls through it’s intense emotional moments and instrumental changes. Floating atop keyboards, percussion, drums and bass, Hansom sings her story by effortlessly walking the line between french and english.

Soho and its accompanying music video released worldwide on July 25th.

lyrics

I stored my mind, my heart on an island
To distance myself from where I’ve been

Oh oh oh oh

Carrying around my bloodstone
Helping me face what is unknown

C’est l’orage qui creuse
Une vie de tendresse
Ou on va, quant à moi
Personne ne le saura
I’m drifting

Oh oh oh oh

J’ai renversé mon corps
Perdu mes repères
Resté trop longtemps
Dans l’ouest
En hiver En hiver

Late night landing in London’s fog
Keep me warm yeah, that’s enough for me
Take the time before it’s gone
Soothe my soul yeah, that’s enough for me

Tada tada Tada ahh Tada tada Tada ahh

With your red dress on the floor got me feeling
You’re warm, but you know I’ll be going away

Oh oh oh oh

Trying to find my way through soho
My heart back and forth like a yoyo

Mmmm

C’est mon souffle qui se noie
Et le temps qui me perd
Qui on est, quant à moi
On le garde près de soi
I’m falling

Oh oh oh oh

Mmmm
C’est le souffle qui se perd
Et le temps qui se noie
C’est c’qu’on m’dit au tarot
On my way to tokyo -oh -oh -ohh
Oh-oh-oh-ohhh

Even though I can, won’t smile for you
Even though I can’t, I’ll be there for you
Even though I can, won’t feel for you
Even though
Even though I can’t
I’ll be there, for you
When you fall apart
When you fall
We fall
Yeah we fall apart

We will be there
When you fall apart
When you fall, you fall
We’ll be there for you

Even though I can’t, won’t change for you
Even though I want to feel you too
I’ll never let you know
