* Out now *

Songs of Douglass and Littell is the new album by Inara George that revisits songs written over thirty years ago by her longtime friends Eliot Douglass and Philip Littell. Inara first met Philip as a child at the Theatricum Botanicum and later performed in his and Eliot’s work in the 1990s Los Angeles theater scene. Known for her folk-pop and indie projects—All Rise, Dearest Everybody, The Bird and the Bee, and The Living Sisters—she brings her clear, warm voice to these songs with a sound that blends her folk-pop roots with subtle jazz influences. Recorded live with orchestrations by Jeff Babko and production by Mike Andrews, Songs of Douglass & Littell, not only honors the creative bond between Inara, Eliot and Philip, but also brings these long-forgotten songs into the light—tenderly, joyfully, and with a sense of homecoming.
