Effective period / Period of releases: 2011

Adwoa Hackman, born 22 July 1974 in Munich (Germany), is a singer, songwriter and music producer based in London. She experiments between the sounds of Soul music and alternative RnB, with a passion for tribal percussive elements mainly from West Africa and India.

In her newest works, Hackman uses songwriting as a window to reflect on her own personal experiences. She writes about her identity as a black queer woman in today’s society, as well as about self love, empowerment and the complexity of relationships. Her lyrics are driven by the intention of personal healing and growth, and helping others on their own journey.

Hackman also plays guitar, bass and drums, always driven by the desire to express herself in the music from all angles.

Adwoa has lived in Berlin for 15 years. She has performed in numerous clubs and festivals and gathered an ever-growing community of supporters.
She released two albums, Tief Wie Das Meer (Deep As The Ocean, 2011) and Exil (Exile, 2015), which she received widespread praise by the press and the public.

Adwoa now lives in London and started releasing new songs in the beginning of 2021.

She released her song ‘Love Intro’ on 21 February. Her second single ‘Sealed With A Kiss’ came out on 8 April. The next release will be in May 2021.
