- Release Notes ------------------------------------------------------------- -
It happens once in a blue moon, if youÆre lucky. You stumble across a new
artist û on MySpace, in a club, on the radio û and fall so quickly and madly
in love, you want to stand on top of a desk, a building, even a mountain, and
let the whole world know.?? Vancouver singer-songwriter Hannah Georgas is the
new love of your life û and she wonÆt break your heart. Her voice,
bittersweet yet as spunky as an indie film heroine, will make you swoon as
she sings about love, language and awkward situations.?? Just listen to the
two sumptuous acoustic-pop songs on her split 7-inch with Mark Watrous
(Shudder To Think, Gosling), due out November 3, 2009. The Deep End was
inspired by daily phone conversations with one of her older sisters while
Chit Chat recounts a recent dining experience with someone who wouldnÆt shut
up. ??ôI do listen more than I speak,ö says Hannah ôI think thatÆs why I make
a good songwriter. I was just watching home videos and IÆm definitely the kid
on the swing set, singing to myself. In university, IÆd know the answer to
questions and I would not put up my hand because I would be too scared to
speak. Getting on stage, though, is completely different for me û thatÆs the
best thing in the world. ö??Chit Chat and The Deep End are two of the tunes
from her upcoming full-length debut, produced by Howard Redekopp, slated for
release in March 2010. ItÆs a warm, whimsical collection of pop-roots songs,
but it also offers a hint of HannahÆs secret life as a dancefloor diva.
??Your Ghost is about duplicity, while Shine is a celestial missive initially
written for a car commercial. (It didnÆt make the cut, but did appear on an
episode of one of Hugh DillonÆs many TV shows.) Come On The Dancefloor feels
like an electro-punk number. ??ôI love to dance and I just wanted to write a
song that would inspire people to rip it up on the dancefloor,ö she says. ??
As much as Hannah loves to bust a move, songwriting is her true passion. She
wrote her first tune when she was six ù ôItÆs really embarrassing,ö she
giggles ù shortly after she started piano lessons in her hometown of
Newmarket, Ont. Almost two decades later, she won a songwriting contest,
which convinced her to record her first EP, The Beat Stuff, released last
January.?? Her early supporters include Said The Whale û sheÆll appear on
their upcoming album - and singer-songwriter Jeremy Fisher. (His wife
actually deserves the credit for introducing him to Hannah and helping her
land a manager.) She recently sang for the prime minister (and thousands) of
others on Parliament Hill and she co-wrote a TV jingle, which sheÆs now
turning into a full-length song û thanks to hundreds of requests from new
followers. Starbucks is also a convert and licensed The Beat Stuff to play in
its stores across North America. With the full-length album out next year,
and a fall tour across Canada with fellow Vancouver based artists Said The
Whale, sheÆs well on her way to convert the rest of Canada into true Hannah
Georgas fans!.
