These songs reflect the highs and lows of his life—from childhood struggles to personal
loss. Each track, in its raw and intimate form, showcases Søren’s ability to transform
profound emotions into music that resonates with listeners on a heartfelt level.

Søren says, _“This is “I Got You” Stripped! I wanted to record a version of the 
song that focuses on lyrics and emotion in a different way. There are a lot of changes
happening in America (and the rest of the world) right now and I’ve always felt 
this song had a strong positive message so I’m happy to be able to release it like
this now! We had a lot of fun recording and filming it and I hope you like it!”_

Regarding the project, he adds, _“I’ve always loved stripped-down versions of album
songs. A full production is fun but you shine a different kind of light on a song
and the vocals when it is down to its bare bones – a certain kind of fragility. 
I wanted to record some of the songs from my debut record like this to convey that
emotion and highlight the lyrics. I really enjoyed recording these and I hope you’ll
enjoy them, as well!”_

**About Søren Hansen **
Once you find your calling, it never lets go of you…Søren
Hansen co-founded platinum-selling alternative pop band New Politics, released five
fan favorite records, and toured around the world for over a decade. Eventually,
the vocalist, multi-instrumentalist, and producer wound up in Nashville where he
planted roots and carved out a lane for himself behind-the-scenes as a songwriter
and producer, collaborating with a bevy of acts across genres.

As he kept writing and recording music, he couldn’t help but hold on to certain 
tunes for himself. They felt a little too close to his heart as he reflected on 
the ups and downs of childhood, the loss of his mom, and how he got here.He fashioned
those songs into his 2024 self-titled full-length debut album, _Søren Hansen_ [ENCI
Records].

_“I never thought I would be on stage ever again,” _he states. _“Suddenly, I started
getting the urge. I created some songs I really loved, and I was proud enough of
this music to want to play it live. That was the whole reason for getting into this
project—to process all of those thoughts. There were things I was sorry about and
things I was happy about. Finally, there was a place I could put them. Even if it
was merely a folder on my desktop, that was enough for me. It was incredible to 
go back and be an artist again.”_

For Søren, music served as an anchor in the midst of a turbulent childhood in Denmark.
By his high school graduation, he had lived in 13 different places and attended 
eight different schools. As the perennial _“new kid_,_” _bullies often targeted 
him. In fifth grade, he received a small keyboard as a gift from the family of a
friend. At 18-years-old, a guy in a bar approached him and said, _“You look like
a singer_._”_ A few beers later, he started singing alongside his new buddy and 
recognized his latent talent.

Leaving home, he studied jazz piano in Greece for a year before settling in Copenhagen
for the next eight years. He landed a major label deal as part of New Politics, 
and a whirlwind ensued. The group notched a global hit in the form of “Harlem,” 
garnering a platinum certification, landing dozens of syncs, and even soundtracking
a trailer for the Disney mega-hit _Frozen_. They canvased North America with everyone
from Fall Out Boy and Paramore to P!nk in addition to tallying hundreds of millions
of streams.

Trading New York for Nashville during the Pandemic, he built a studio of his own
and began writing and recording with the likes of Sam Palladio, Sarah and the Sundays,
and Striking Matches. Simultaneously, he crafted solo tunes laced with pop universality
and punchy rock spirit.

After a session with producer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Femke, she sent
music to ENCI Records, and Søren unassumingly and unexpectedly found himself with
a recording contract as a solo artist.

_“After a year-and-a-half of writing ideas, it happened very fast,” _he recalls._“
Since I was working with so many other people, I needed an outlet. A lot of the 
songs were about my mom who passed away in Denmark, while I was in the U.S. There
was a lot of guilt over not being there. The music was just therapy, and I was going
to get to share it. A lot of the songs come from a place of recognizing something
beautiful and important, but feeling like I ran away and never looked back until
it was too late.”_

In the end, Søren is doing exactly what he what he’s meant to.

_“I’ve come to a point where I’m proud of the person I’ve become,”_ he leaves in._“
I’m able to tap into who Soren is. Nothing else really matters. A lot of the music
come from a real place and a lot of hurts. I didn’t give up, no matter what though.
I always get back on my feet and keep moving. That’s who I am today.”_
