Norah Jones Releases New Single “Just a Little Bit” and Announces New Album ‘Begin Again’
Grammy award winning, platinum selling recording artist Norah Jones just released her new single “Just a Little Bit” off her upcoming album Begin Again.
The new album, due out April 12, is a collection of singles that gathers seven eclectic songs that Jones has recorded over the past year with collaborators including Jeff Tweedy and Thomas Bartlett.
“Just a Little Bit” was produced by Jones and features her on vocals, piano, and organ along with Brian Blade on drums, Christopher Thomas on bass, Dave Guy on trumpet, and Leon Michels on tenor saxophone.
Speaking about the album, Jones said “I felt inspired to record and try different things,” adding that the idea was to make it “quick and fun and easy and low-pressure. It’s a great way to collaborate with other people. Just a day or 3 in the studio and that’s it.”
“I try to go in with a few clips of voice memo ideas to have a jumping off point,” she explains. “With each session the little ideas were definitely with those particular musicians in mind, but the hope is to always create in the moment and with each session there were songs that came out of nothing. I was very open and had no real expectations as far as direction, but each session has exceeded my expectations. It’s been so fun and I feel very inspired right now and love all the different directions this is going.”
Norah Jones is making her highly anticipated debut performance at KettleHouse Amphitheater in Montana on July 24, 2019. The show sold out in record time for Logjam Presents.
