We first got tipped off on LA-based singer/songwriter Anabel Englund from her vocal features on Hot Natured’s (Lee Foss, Jamie Jones, Luca C & Ali Love) 2013 album “Different Sides of the Sun” and after taking some time off to focus on writing and her own artistic creation, Anabel re-emerges with her solo project and debut single “London Headache.”
The futuristic yet classic production on the record allows Anabel to bring both lyrical and vocal talents to the forefront, proving that her level of storytelling is second-to-none within the world of house music. “London Headache” is a stunning piece of alternative pop/house, with elements of disco running throughout, which coupled with her deeply personal lyrics makes for a unique and fascinating listen.
We asked Anabel to put together an exclusive playlist and with it she takes us through her private listening experience as she boards an international flight back to LA.

“I chose this song for my alarm. It doesn’t matter what time I’m waking up if I’m waking up to her voice.”
