Hannah Diamond is a British musician and visual artist based in London. Diamond has released four solo singles on the PC Music record label since 2013, and her single "Attachment" was called "bubblegum hyper reality" by ''Stereogum''. Her music is characterized by an intensely cute aesthetic, as well as its uncertain sincerity. Diamond has been one of PC Music's more serious attempts to establish "a new kind of popstar." ==Music== Diamond met GFOTY through a friend, and GFOTY introduced her to A. G. Cook. After a vocalist failed to show up to a session with Cook, the two worked on their first musical collaboration. In 2012, they recorded Diamond's first solo song, titled "Attachment".〔 Diamond released her debut single "Pink and Blue" through PC Music in October 2013. The song resembles a lullaby, with a harshly synthetic quality. The attention received by "Pink and Blue" helped to introduce the fledgling label, and it placed 5th on ''Fact''s list of "The 100 best tracks of the decade so far". The following January, Diamond appeared on A. G. Cook's "Keri Baby". The song toyed with the idea of Diamond as an MP3 file or a digital entity on a screen. Diamond made her first live performance in April, at Basement in London. She released "Attachment" as her second single later that month. "Attachment" is a melancholy ballad about modern relationships, with a high-pitched melody backed by farcical harmonies. Diamond's third solo single "Every Night" was released in November 2014 and became PC Music's first single available through the iTunes Store. The song discusses feelings of desire and showcases a more bold personality than Diamond's earlier songs. Her vocals are childlike and staccato, supported by "oh-ooh-oh" harmonies.〔 The production drew comparisons to La Bouche and "Call Me Maybe" by Carly Rae Jepsen".〔 "Every Night" received nearly 200,000 plays on SoundCloud within two weeks, and it became Diamond's first song to appear on a ''Billboard'' chart, reaching 28th on the Emerging Artists chart.〔 March 2015 saw Diamond head to the USA to play the PC Music showcase at the Empire Garage in Austin, Texas as part of SXSW. Her performance was very well received with The Guardian calling it a "well-crafted performance, as much about the aesthetic and choreography as the camp songs" 〔http://www.theguardian.com/music/2015/mar/20/pc-music-sxsw-good-taste-pop-makeover〕 and according to Flavorwire was the one "who impressed the most."〔http://flavorwire.com/510450/from-online-to-irl-inside-pc-musics-debut-live-show-at-sxsw〕 On 8 May 2015, Diamond performed as part of a PC Music show at BRIC House in Brooklyn, New York as part of the Red Bull Music Academy Festival. The show was billed as the premiere of Pop Cube, "a multimedia reality network".〔http://www.nytimes.com/2015/05/11/arts/music/review-pc-music-and-sophie-in-a-high-concept-extravaganza-at-bric-house.html?_r=0〕 In November 2015, Diamond released her song "Hi" with a music video made in conjunction with ''i-D'' magazine. After having the resources to produce her first music video, she selected "Hi" as a "way of tying up my older material, and a good way of introducing my next phase". Diamond has begun recording a full-length album, originally planned for release in 2015.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hannah Diamond」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
