"“I was attracted to the lyrics immediately,” says legendary Beatles engineer and producer Geoff Emerick, on the demos for what would become Nellie McKay’s 2004 critically-lauded debut album, Get Away From Me. “Her level of maturity at such a young age is astounding. You come across an artist of this caliber once every 10 or 15 years. And I don’t do a lot of projects these days unless something really stands out like this did.” Get Away From Me landed on the Billboard Top 200, received HHHH from Rolling Stone, and Nellie made her network television debut on The Late Show with David Letterman. In 2020, Salon hailed the record as “one of the great pop albums of the early 21st century.”"[info sheet from distr.]
