Interview with Sano Hill about “Time Out”
June 28, 2023 By Meg Chandler
​
Hey Sano Hill, could you tell me a few things about yourself?
I’m a singer songwriter based in Galway in Ireland who writes and performs melodic acoustic rock songs that are influenced by life, love and loss – and my musical and literary influences. I try to bring integrity and emotional honesty to what I do both in composition and performance and hopefully it comes through in the songs. I come from a musical family originally from Cavan (a small rural county in South Ulster) – my mother leads a traditional music group still there! – so I was always surrounded by music growing up and have been writing my own songs as long as I can remember. I moved to Galway to go to University and have been here ever since and Galway has such a rich music and broader cultural scene – my music has grown out of that background. Though I wasn’t recording or performing publicly for some time, when the pandemic arrived I went back into the studio and have put together my tracks for a forthcoming album due out in the Autumn.

After the pandemic all of us has been affected on way or other, either recovered from the virus, or worse lose a relative or friend. His has shattered most people. More and more people keep cowering scared to live and live life to the fullest.

Armed with his guitar, Irish singer Sano Hill writes songs and creates music with genuine lyrics about life, love, loss, and personal experiences that may be relatable and leave you feeling both hopeful and inspired. His latest single, “Starting Over”, is one beautiful offering that’ll take listeners further into his newly minted indie music world.
Enjoy the vibe of listening to this song in the car or as if you’re going on a long road trip. Despite the theme of parting, the lyrics give off a “let’s wing it” vibe. The vibe of living the song’s warm and lively melody perfectly complements this upbeat mood. From the title itself, “Starting Over” is a reflection of how life has been and what it could be in the future. It embraces how we are continuously in progress and that it’s okay to start over when things get messy.
With a heartwarming purpose and beautifully written words, Sano Hill assures listeners that trouble might get in the way, but that’s temporary. We can slowly rise back up and as we do, we can take a moment to cherish what we have and where we are now. Learn to enjoy life where you are right now. “My music is about realizing the possibilities to fully embrace life right now and appreciating the value of enjoying life moment to moment,” Hill explains.

Interview - Sano Hill
Giovanni Gagliano
May 31, 2022 https://www.giventorock.com/
​
"Starting Over" is a new song by Sano Hill featuring a full-band musical accompaniment that is both interesting and varied, as well as introspective and hopeful lyrics. It was recorded with award-winning producer Larry Hogan at Dublin's famed Windmill Lane Studios.
- Welcome to this interview. Tell us about your latest release Starting Over.
Starting Over is a song about moving on from a relationship that hasn’t worked out, accepting that and beginning again. It was a difficult song to write and took some time to fully come together - like most of my songs, it began as a melody I carried with me for some time (first worked out on guitar before additional instrumentation came together) before the lyrics took shape. It’s part of a narrative on my forthcoming album which charts the course of a relationship.

Sano Hill Interview: New Music, Love, Compassion And Remaining Hopeful
BY PAUL J WOLFLE FEBRUARY 18, 2022
​
Evocative, poetic and compelling only begin to describe “The Climb” from Sano Hill. The lead single from the recording artist’s upcoming album, a rhythmic melody, expressive lyrics and Hill’s separate vocals combine to provide undeniable distinction. Through headphones or larger stereo speakers, the instrumentation, performance and production during “The Climb” are outstanding. But this is merely half the story.
