Following her highly successful first UK headline tour last month,\u00a0Philippa Hanna\u00a0has released the video for brand new single ‘The Hero’.\u00a0The hard hitting, pop-country track delivers a powerful and vital sentiment for a fast-paced \u2018have it all\u2019 generation, \u2018You don\u2019t to have to have the world all figured out. Everybody needs saving sometimes.\u2019<\/strong><\/h4>\n

No stranger to the shadows of depression and anxiety and a willing spokesperson for the cause, Philippa claims the song came from both personal experiences and conversations with her fans.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo many of us have moments where daily life becomes overwhelming. I wanted ‘The Hero’ to be a loving reminder that there is no shame in asking for help, even if you are the one that usually has it together and takes care of others. If we can openly talk about and deal with these vulnerable moments it could prevent much deeper problems later on.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The single’s evocative music video depicts a varied cast of characters immersed in water and struggling towards the surface. \u201cI wanted to somehow recreate that feeling of drowning that life can cause to feel when stress overwhelms us. I hope that it reminds viewers that this can happen to anyone and that there is nothing to feel ashamed about.\u201d<\/p>\n
