Anna Hoone
Portland-based singer-songwriter Anna Hoone's forthcoming EP "You're The Only One Here," explores themes of loneliness and isolation, largely inspired by her long experience with illness. Who are you when you can no longer play music? How do you find home in a body filled with pain? How do you grieve a future that no longer exists?

These are some of the questions addressed through Anna's tender and introspective songwriting.
