"Georgy Girl" (Download)
In 1972–1973, I lived in Europe for a year while my dad was on sabbatical leave from teaching at Punahou School in Hawaii. As we drove all over Europe, we had a small cassette player in our car and somehow acquired a cassette of the British pop group, The New Seekers. They performed "Georgy Girl" (1972), which was originally released in 1966 by The Seekers as the title track for the 1966 film Georgy Girl.
I fell in love with the harmonies on that album and learned to sing every part of every song. When singing with FOUR and Malathy Villar, I wanted to arrange and record a song that would not only showcase her incredible vocal range but also highlight the depth of her lyric interpretation and the raw emotion she pours into every note. This is the sixth song on my new album, Vintage A Cappella, and is only available for download here, on my website.
