Watch Gordi’s “Can We Work It Out”

Gordi shares new video and single "Can We Work It out"

Gordi has announced the release of her debut EP, Clever Disguise, due out May 13th (digital) and July 8th (physical) on Jagjaguwar. All songs on the EP feature Gordi’s songwriting and features production work from Alex Somers (Sigur Ros, Julianna Barwick) and Francois Tetaz (Gotye, Architecture In Helsinki). Today, she shares the EP’s first single “Can We Work It Out.”

Gordi’s began playing the piano at an early age by virtue of her music teacher mother. Like so many of her musical heroes, she was later drawn to the earthiness of the steel string – a useful piece of armory to have growing up on a farming property in Canowindra in rural New South Wales, Australia. But the craft in her songwriting is found partly in the emotional spectrum that her tracks span – from wistful aching to spirited celebration, her lyrical journeys take us places in our memories and imaginations that belie her 22 years.

Ahead of the release of Clever Disguise, Gordi will tour North America making a stop at Sasquatch! Music Festival in May. A full list of dates is below with more to be announced soon.
