GEORGIA HARMER - “CAN WE BE STILL” + “LITTLE LIGHT”
LABEL : ARTS & CRAFTS


Following Georgia Harmer’s recent return with “Can We Be Still” – and a jaunt overseas supporting The Weather Station – the celebrated Toronto singer-songwriter is sharing new single “Little Light,” a gentle and reflective tune that brims Georgia’s eloquent storytelling. Her lithe acoustic guitar dances around the unmatched beauty of her voice singing a country-inflected lullaby lightly accented by measured doses of vibraphone and slide guitar. In Georgia’s words:

"’Little Light’ is an homage to a very peaceful place out in the country where I lived for a few months, and a new love taking root,” says Harmer. “It's a very hopeful song, about being led to inner solace, and feeling like the blinds are being opened to let the light in a little bit more than they'd ever really been. It's a song about tranquility and reverence, for the place I was in, physically and emotionally, and trying to take in the beauty that surrounded me and let it seep inward enough to make me feel like I could be part of it.”

“‘Can We Be Still’ is about lifelong best-friendship and striving to protect it from the inevitable changes that come with time,” says Georgia. “It’s about having a shared vision of the future and a desire to preserve it, to see the plan for ever-lasting closeness through.”

With wisdom and poise, Georgia Harmer arrived with the 2022 release of her acclaimed debut album Stay In Touch, an emotionally resonant collection of songs that articulates the ways in which even the most fleeting experiences can forge bonds between strangers, create families out of friends, and one by one form the joys and sorrows that make up a life. Spanning intimate folk and strummy country to sophisticated jazz and pop-kissed rock, Harmer and her band created musical landscapes that live up to the lyrical richness of her songwriting, and quickly established Georgia as a voice to transcend eras and genres with her ability to purely enchant. Georgia’s unforgettable voice is singular, gliding along a range of emotion from soft distorted rockers to bucolic ballads with windswept ease. Already a seasoned performer, Georgia has toured alongside City And Colour, Broken Social Scene, Bahamas, The Paper Kites, Haley Blais, Dan Mangan, Basia Bulat, Tim Baker, The Ballroom Thieves, and more.
