Emerging from the same scene as Siouxise and The Banshees, Lydia Lunch, and JG Thirlwell, Hogan has gone on to collaborate with artists including Soft Cell’s Marc Almond, Yello, and Kraftwerk’s Wolfgang Flür.

For Honeysuckle Burials, Hogan weaves field recordings amassed from Wales’ northern countryside through ethereal solo piano compositions.

Honeysuckle Burials follows Hogan’s 2019 album Lost In Blue, released via Cold Spring.
