Hannah Jadagu

Early life Jadagu was raised in Mesquite, Texas, United States. In April 2021, she debuted with her EP, What Is Going On?, with label Sub Pop. The EP was made entirely on her iPhone 7 using GarageBand. It was featured on NPR Music. During this time, she released the single "All My Time Is Wasted." The song was used in the American superhero drama Naomi.

Jadagu released another single, "Say It Now," in September 2022, which drew attention from publications such as Clash and DIY. The song was praised for its combination of "drifting pop-edged indie melodies" and "warm, easy vocal" with direct lyrics that ask "difficult questions."

Jadagu played in Pitchfork Music Festival London 2022.

In 2023, Jadagu announced her debut album, Aperture, alongside the single "What You Did." Aperture was written between her tours with Faye Webster, Wet, and Frankie Cosmos, and is themed around "about the transitional experience of coming into [Jadagu's] early 20s." The title is inspired by aperture priority in photography; as explained by Jadagu, "as a young person today, you have to know how to choose what to carry with you from your experiences and what to leave behind, what to close the light on."

New York Times described "What You Did" as showcasing "Jadagu's easy aptitude with lilting melodies and her love of deliciously crunchy texture."

Activism In December 2022, it was announced that Jadagu would be participating in abortion access benefit concerts by Ground Control Touring, along with other artists such as Horsegirl and Ian Sweet, in January 2023.
