New URL and Throwback Thursday with Hannah Georgas



 

On the heels of this little blog’s three year anniversary, I finally gave In The Round a big girl blog domain – www.intheround.ca! So, instead of tediously relaying the old “blogspot.ca” (which I know you all do, all the time) –  some time and energy can be saved with this much more legit web address. Spread the word!

Anyway, back to Throwback Thursday business. I’ve been on a heavy female singer-songwriter kick these past few weeks – dabbling in lovely songbirds like Jadea Kelly, Rachel Sermanni, Kathleen Edwards and her Canadian tourmate Hannah Georgas. I was recently reminded of how much I loved Georgas' 2012 Juno-nominated self-titled and its mature indie-pop songs and since then have been constantly spinning the album, and more specifically, this track. I love watching people’s reactions when they hear the brilliant “Enemies” for the first time; they’re completely spellbound by Georgas’ effortless vocals and the song’s magical instrumentation, but a little stunned by the powerful lyricism. Nothing about Georgas’ music is sugary, but everything about it is addictive.
