Hellena’s ‘Harmonia’ Is A Mythic Hero's Journey Through Sound

Hellena, a Greek artist forged in the shadow of myth, has delivered her sophomore album, 'Harmonia', a deeply personal and sonically adventurous journey. More than just a collection of songs, it's a declaration, a transformation, and an invitation to embrace one's inner hero. Through the album, Hellena aims to inspire others to chase their dreams, crafting a world where the mythical and the real collide.

'Harmonia' is a genre-bending tapestry, weaving together dream pop, indie rock, electro, and Greek folk, creating a soundscape that is both intimate and expansive. As Hellena states, "This album cannot be put in a box. And I love it for that!" This refusal to be confined is evident in tracks that blend traditional Greek instruments with heavy guitars and ethereal synth pads, a testament to her experimental spirit.

The album's narrative centres on ‘Harmonia’, a superheroine alter-ego, a symbol of personal growth and metamorphosis. Hellena explains, "’Harmonia is a story of a hero, but she was far from being a hero in the beginning." This narrative arc mirrors her own journey, from a girl plagued by self-doubt to an artist who embraces her imperfections. The songs explore emotional turmoil and human limitations, acknowledging that "to achieve harmony, we often face chaos first."

Standout singles like ‘Louis Vuitton’ provide a tantalising glimpse into this multifaceted world. With its playful acoustic guitar and airy vocals, it's a slice of folk-infused alternative pop that showcases Hellena's ability to blend organic and electronic elements. Elsewhere, tracks like ‘I Cut Out Nicotine and I Don’t Like Brandy’ shines with bold intent, a pop song driven by vibrant acoustic guitar and a compelling vocal delivery.

With highlights at every turn, the album is a testament to the power of personal transformation. Hellena’s goal to inspire others to chase their dreams and become the heroes of their own lives resonates perfectly, shining with an empowered pop sound.

 'Harmonia' is a multifaceted experience, a world built on sound, visuals, and story, and ultimately, a celebration of the seemingly small and good actions that hold our world together.
