Banhart/Newsom Producer Georgeson Releases Debut
Noah Georgeson produced Joanna Newsom's The Milk-Eyed Mender and Devendra Banhart's Cripple Crow, and he has played guitar with Banhart in his band and on Vetiver's To Find Me Gone. He also dated Newsom and was in the band the Pleased with her. So he has something of a nü-folk pedigree.
But Georgeson will make the transition from band member and behind-the-scenes guy to solo artiste with the November 28 release of his solo debut, Find Shelter, on Plain Recordings.
Find Shelter was recorded in San Francisco, where Georgeson currently lives, and in his hometown of Nevada City, California, between 1999 and 2003, when he was living with Newsom in the room where she wrote most of Mender. Prince-style, Georgeson is credited with having "written, scored, arranged, recorded, and produced" the entirety of Find Shelter, according to a press release. He sang and played guitar, piano, organ, and Mellotron on the album, and he conducted the Kite Hill Chamber Orchestra in the recording of the remaining instrumental parts.
