Annie Hart is a keyboardist, songwriter and vocalist. She primarily composes and performs in the band Au Revoir Simone.[1] In 2017, she released a solo album entitled Impossible Accomplice.[2] She has contributed vocals to other artists' projects and appeared on the 2017 series of Twin Peaks.[3]

History

Annie Hart was born on Long Island, New York, and is one of three founding members of synth-pop pioneers Au Revoir Simone. She has been in other groups including Uninhabitable Mansions,[4] featuring members of Clap Your Hands Say Yeah,[5] and collaborated as a composer with French band Air for their soundtrack to Les Voyages Dans La Lune.[4] In 2017, she began releasing music under her own name apart from Au Revoir Simone[6] and embarked on a world tour.

She has appeared on screen along with the other members of Au Revoir Simone in Episodes 4[7] and 9[8] of the 2017 series of Twin Peaks. Her song, "Hard To Be Still," appeared on episode one of the Netflix series, Gypsy, starring Naomi Watts.[9]

Musical Style

Hart's music is considered minimal synth-pop. New York Magazine's Bedford and Bowery describes it as "resonant, tender, and not too sweet".[10] She primarily composes on electric piano and vintage synthesizers.
