Annie Hamilton - Panic

Though we just emerged from an era of lockdown, 2020 was a breakout year for Annie Hamilton. She released a stunning, self-titled EP, appeared on Triple J's Like a Version, all the while maintaining a career in fashion design.

The multi-faceted artist effortlessly recast her soaring indie-rock anthem Panic as an eerie and atmospheric slow burn for her Live at Enmore session.

Despite the reinterpretation — which featured Jenny McCullagh of I Know Leopard on violin — Hamilton's flair for melody and talent for unwinding a compelling narrative was there for all to see in this stripped-back performance.

Though there were only two musicians, they made their presence known in the space. McCullagh's violin and vocal harmony was the perfect foil for Hamilton's gritty guitar and spacious, intimate vocal delivery.

"I wrote Panic a few years ago, in Iceland, on a residency and recorded on a voice memo and then forgot about it," says Hamilton. "And then I found it going through my voice memos about two years later...Panic is about that all-consuming sense of self-doubt that stops you from getting anywhere."
