It’s love hour with Giovanna
Equipped with a voice oozing a unique charm, Giovanna is an R&B artist who entrances listeners. Once you hear her, you’ll wonder who she is and what other music she has to dive into.
Born in Arizona, but brought up in Florida, Giovanna yearned for music since she was a child. Encouraging this love, Giovanna’s father showed her groundbreaking artists such as Amy Winehouse and Norah Jones.
Starting with “confessions 1,” Giovanna began releasing music on Spotify in 2021. Emphasizing Giovanna’s emotion-rich voice, “confessions 1” is honest and calming, with beautiful moments of acoustic guitar and strings.
After multiple singles, in 2023, Giovanna dropped the soothing and encouraging “i know best” followed by the relaxing and romantic “get away.” Both songs share personal and relatable stories with listeners. Continuing to create authentic music, Giovanna released “love hour”.
Production-wise, “love hour” consistently moves. Rather than being aggressive and intense, the song maintains an intriguing rhythm, with the occasional “shh” adding to the draw. The beats combine and intensify at precise moments to heighten the tension and create a sensual atmosphere.
Of course, Giovanna’s voice also contributes to establishing the atmosphere of “love hour.” At the right moments, her voice softens, and her rasp shines through, accentuating the charm already present in her voice. Giovanna’s voice easily flips into a higher register that is graceful and sweet. In a seemingly effortless and confident manner, Giovanna conveys her passion.
The single “love hour” articulates an eagerness to be with someone. Giovanna sings, “I work hard till it comes time to play/babe just give me a time and a place.” This moment has been anticipated and a wish has been stated with boldness and clarity. Now it’s all up to the other to respond.
Smooth and never trying too hard, “love hour” is a short, yet effective song. The longing and fervor expressed with the vocals, lyrics, and production make it easy to sink into. With her voice and lyrics, Giovanna gives the vibe that she isn’t trying to be anyone other than herself. She’s here for the long run and we should pay attention.
