Artist News Releases
Hanni El Khatib announces new album, Flight
By Andy Malt | Published on Tuesday 31 March 2020
Hanni El Khatib has announced that he will release new album ‘Flight’ later this year. Alongside that news, he’s also put out new single ‘Alive’.
Speaking on the inspiration for the new song, he says: “Last April, I was in a pretty serious car accident. Our vehicle was rear ended at high speed leaving the car crumpled up and flipped over. Miraculously we were all … relatively unscathed with only a few minor injuries. It was definitely a close call. Even the paramedics and police officers on site were in shock that we were all standing there, given the severity of the crash”.
“The whole experience gave me some much needed perspective on life”, he goes on. “I knew I wanted to touch on that somehow on this record. When the instrumental came together for the track it immediately felt like the perfect backdrop for this story”.
‘Flight’ is set for release on 15 May through Innovative Leisure. Watch the video for ‘Alive’ here:
