Hannah Georgas unveils new track "Just A Phase"

21 July 2020, 14:38 | Written by Cerys Kenneally

Hannah Georgas is back with new single "Just A Phase", a fourth preview of her upcoming Aaron Dessner-produced album All That Emotion.

"Just A Phase" is the fourth taster of All That Emotion, arriving after earlier releases "Dreams", "Same Mistakes" and "That Emotion".

Georgas' new single arrives with a video shot in The National's Long Pond studio (which features on the cover of their Sleep Well Beast LP) and includes footage shot on tour with The National last year.

All That Emotion will be Georgas' first album since 2016's For Evelyn, and is produced by The National's Aaron Dessner.

Georgas adds of her new LP, "I have been thinking about what this album represents to me and it is resilience. It's about finding hope and a way out the other side of tough situations. The hardships we go through make us grow into stronger people. The album is about healing, self reflection and getting up again at the end of the day."

She says of working with Dessner, "Before each session, I would make the long drive from Toronto to Hudson Valley in Upstate New York. It was really special getting the opportunity to work in such a remote space with Aaron and Jon and I was always itching to get back whenever we had breaks. At the same time, I appreciated the space in between and coming back with fresh ears. Aaron and I agreed the production needed to bring out the truth in my voice. During these sessions we musically found a new depth and, vocally, a delivery that was more raw and expressive, allowing the emotional texture of each song to shine through."

Tomorrow (22 July), Georgas is taking part in an Instagram Live chat with This Is The Kit from 6pm BST.

"Just A Phase" is out now. Hannah Georgas' All That Emotion album will arrive 4 September via Brassland / Arts & Crafts, and is available to pre-order now.
