George Stanford Gets Smashed

08/28/07
.
(PR) Meet George Stanford, a dedicated and driven young multi-instrumental singer and songwriter, and first release to the new Smash Records subsidiary of Mercury, a division of the Island Def Jam Music Group. Philadelphia-bred and L.A.-fed, Stanford’s debut EP will be released on September 25th, with a full-length album on schedule for early next year, it was announced by David Massey, president, Mercury Records.

The 5-song EP will contain: 1. My Own Worst Enemy * 2. Heartbeat * 3. Nikole * 4. Let’s Stay Here * 5. Downriver (Live). Tracks, 1, 3, and 4 were produced and mixed by Stanford between Philadelphia and L.A.; track 2 was written and recorded in Philadelphia with Dave Tozer (who has worked with John Legend); and track 5 was recorded live at Hotel Café in L.A. Stanford is currently working producing his album alongside John Alagia (credits: John Mayer, Jason Mraz, Dave Mathews Band), Eric Ivan Rosse (Sarah Bareilles, Anna Nalick, Tori Amos), and Brian Malouf (Dave Mathews, Army Of Me, OAR).

Stanford’s guitar and keyboard-rooted songs reflect his musical odyssey - from his native Philadelphia, where he studied music theory at University of the Arts and formed the favorite hometown rock group, Townhall, to L.A., where he settled after touring, recording and now works on his own music full-time. Although he made his way to the front of the band through the brass section, playing trombone as a kid in every type of band he could, he soon mastered guitar, bass, keyboards, and anything else that would make noise.

Tour dates are as follows:
09/11 - The Varsity Minnesota
09/13 - Bluebird Bloomington, Indiana
09/14 - Martyr¹s Chicago, IL
09/19 - The Bowery New York, NY
09/21 - Decibel Providence
09/22 - The Station Portland, Maine
09/24 - World Cafe Live Philadelphia, PA
09/26 - Canal Club Richmond, Virginia
