Having recently supported Brit artist Maisie Peters on her tour, Jonah Kagen finally releases his highly-anticipated debut EP 'georgia got colder'.
The 22-year-old grew up in Georgia USA, where he started his songwriting journey. Finding inspiration in the music of guitarist Andy McKee, whose definite guitar fingerpicking soundscape transported Jonah into his own haven . “He opened my eyes to what an acoustic guitar could be,” he recalls, as he dove deeper into creating music on his own. “If you can bring somebody something with your music that they can’t get anywhere else, there’s nothing better than that.”
The EP holds 7 tracks which includes past releases like 'barcelona,' 'hill that I’ll die on' and 'graveyard shift,' as well as his hit debut single, 'broken,' which has amassed over 42 million streams to date. Nailing down to Jonah's authentic acoustic style on this EP, we get to hear three brand new tracks, all of which finish off the story of Jonah's musical art.
“Each song on this EP has a unique story from a different period of my life,” says Jonah. “I’ve experienced so many distinct emotions over the last couple years—missing someone, being missed, being there for someone, needing someone to be there for me. I think they’re all equally valuable, and I wanted them to live together in a space that can hopefully bring some sort of comfort to anyone listening that might hear even just one line that resonates.”
