Indie artist Hannah Nolasco performs in a solo mini-concert today, Sunday, 4 to 7 p.m., at Hard Rock Café in Glorietta 3 Makati to launch her debut CD, “Sweet 16.”
Hannah will sing tracks from the album, starting with the carrier single, “Peksman.” All the songs were composed by praise songwriter Boy Christopher Ramos Jr.
Hannah describes her music as fun and youthful. “I will not sing a song that I can’t relate to. My music will always reflect who I am and what I believe in.”
