HT Heartache

As her name suggests, HT Heartache writes songs that tilt toward the dark side, with a voice that recalls the sultry tones of Margo Timmins of the Cowboy Junkies. Relatively new to the world of songwriting, this L.A chanteuse has come out of the chute with an impressive debut album, produced by friend and musician Gus Black. American Songwriter chatted with the singer about her musical upbringing, and why geography doesn’t always necessitate one’s sound.
