Hannah Georgas - This is Good

In music, success often leads to a plethora of copycats. Canada already has plenty of Avril and Feist soundalikes, so thankfully this Vancouver singer-songwriter has got her own thing going on. Steeped in edgy new wave and dancepop with attitude, Hannah’s debut album scores big points for lyrical wit, catchy beats and a refreshing lack of predictability. One minute she’s getting “down and dirty” on the provocative “Dancefloor,” the next she’s turning torchy on the retro jazz of “Something for You.”
