NORAH JONES VISITS ASHEVILLE
IN SUPPORT OF HER ACCLAIMED NEW ALBUM THE FALL
 
Multiple Grammy Award-winning singer and songwriter Norah Jones has
announced U.S. tour dates in support of her critically acclaimed new album
The Fall, which was released by EMI¹s Blue Note Records on November 17. The
Fall finds Jones experimenting with a new set of collaborators, including
Jacquire King, a noted producer and engineer who has worked with Kings of
Leon, Tom Waits, and Modest Mouse among others. Jones enlisted several
songwriting collaborators, including Ryan Adams and Okkervil River¹s Will
Sheff, as well as her frequent partner Jesse Harris. King also helped Jones
put together a new group of musicians to perform on the album, including
drummers Joey Waronker (Beck, R.E.M.) and James Gadson (Bill Withers),
keyboardist James Poyser (Erykah Badu, Al Green), and guitarists Marc Ribot
(Tom Waits, Elvis Costello) and Smokey Hormel (Johnny Cash, Joe Strummer).
