Hannah Georgas' RIDEBACK Premieres at Nerdist, New Album out 6/24

Hannah Georgas' new song "Rideback" premiered yesterday at Nerdist and can now be streamed/shared via SoundCloud and purchased at iTunes. Of the track, the site praises, "'Rideback' opens in gorgeous fanfare. Myriad horns wax and wane in shifting harmonies before Georgas' questioning vocal cuts through."

"Rideback" is the lead track from Georgas' anticipated new full-length album For Evelyn, which will be released June 24 on Dine Alone Records and is now available to pre-order. Each digital pre-order comes with instant download of "Rideback" as well as the album's first single, "Don't Go," of which The Wild Honey Pie praises, "...strikes a perfect balance between lush production and dynamic quiet. The track slowly builds in intensity, as striking percussive hits and her vibrant vocals lead towards the powerful chorus."

Named after Hannah's "compassionate, patient, kind and beautiful" 98-year-old grandmother, For Evelyn was produced by Graham Walsh (Holy f), mixed by Nicolas Vernhes (The War on Drugs, Animal Collective, Dirty Projectors, etc) and features collaborations with Ryan Guldemond (Mother Mother) and Andy Shauf. In celebration of the release, Georgas will embark on a North American tour beginning June 17 at Toronto's Molson Amphitheatre with City and Colour followed by a series of dates with Boy & Bear. See below for complete details.

Since her debut in 2009, Georgas has released two full-length albums (This is Good (2010) and Hannah Georgas (2012)), toured alongside Sara Bareilles, Kathleen Edwards and City and Colour and had music featured on HBO's "Girls." Her most recent self-titled album received widespread critical praise, including notice at NPR Music, Mojo, the Vancouver Weekly and The Huffington Post, which called her "phenomenal."
