Upcoming Shows
Hannah wants to thank all of her fans who came to see her perform across the USA. She's had a blast meeting fans and seeing new places.
The past few years Hannah has held the full time drumming position with Chicago-Land fan favorite Universal Slim & The Blues Kangaroos. June 2007 marks another dream come true for Hannah as she introduces and fronts her own Rock band, "The Hannah Ford Band."
Hannah's newest project, "Pandorum" is a Fusion trio that she is very excited about. View "Pandorum's" first video release. Two great projects for her fans!
Hannah is also working on a solo project she calls her "Peace Love and Drums" show.
What is the “Peace Love and Drums” show all about?
Hannah’s idea behind the “Peace Love and Drums” show is to share her experiences as a young musician and take her audience through the multifaceted world of music and drumming.
The “Peace Love & Drums” show will cover jazz, funk/fusion, rock and vocals. The show is performed live on stage with pre-recorded music tracks and can be presented in a concert format, or a clinic format that allows time for audience participation and questions. These questions might be about anything from Hannah’s drumming technique to what it’s like to play drums with her band, Chicago-land fan-favorite “The Hannah Ford Band", to Hannah’s experiences in the recording studio. Hannah likes the audience participation and questions best of all… as she says, “Ya never know where it’s going or what the audience is going to ask next.”
Is the “Peace Love and Drums” show just for kids?
The show is for anyone who may have an interest in the world of music or percussion. Whether amateur or professional, young or old everyone will enjoy this presentation.
Hannah’s main theme is the importance of music in our world today, especially in the lives of young people. Taking both an educational and entertaining approach, Hannah reaches out to the kids in the audience and shows them how much fun and how special music can be, the places it can take them and the long-term benefits it can bring.
Adults in the audience will see how important it is that they continue to support programs in the local schools and communities and make sure that there will always be music programs for their children to participate in. So many programs are being eliminated due to lack of funding yet the positive effect music has on students— not only from an academic standpoint but from a social standpoint, as well— has been proven time and time again.
Hannah is proud to have been chosen as a spokeswoman for the Percussion Marketing Council's "Girls Just Wanna Have Drums" campaign.
The PMC also has embraced the "Peace Love & Drums" show as a part of their "Percussion in Schools" assembly program.
