Hannah Rooth makes music and community for misfits. Her new band “highly sensitive gays,” plays loving, emotive pop-folk reminicent of Adrienne Lenker, Norah Jones, and Medium Build. Her catalog includes electro-pop, acoustic jazz, progressive electronic, and americana-soul with a variety of collaborating musicians and producers. highly sensitive gays are producing their first records in Summer ‘24 with Lauren O’Connell and Justin Glasco (Brett Dennen, Paris Paloma, Wild Rivers). 

Rooth’s heartbeat is community building, and she spends most of her energy curating community events and programs for practicing emotional vulnerability.  Her current focuses include: oasis house show, a monthly songwriter showcase and “radical spiritual vortex of music and healing” (David Gonzalez); grief songs, a series of music events for communal grief healing; and inner oasis workshop, a peer support container for EQ, intuitive creativity, and community building skills. She is especially interested in promoting a culture of belonging with queer, neurodivergent affirming, and anti-racist values.

Hannah believes we all come from and return to unconditional love and seeks to stay as close she can to that love in this lifetime.
