Geese’s Carnegie Hall live album announced
Cameron Winter, the acclaimed musician known by the moniker Geese, has announced the release of his first live album, Live at Carnegie Hall, capturing a performance at the historic venue.
The recording took place last December and became part of a deliberate run of stripped-back, solo performances, offering an intimate glimpse into the artistry of the musician.
The setlist itself was a curated journey, primarily featuring tracks from his 2024 debut album, ‘Heavy Metal‘, but treated with a new perspective by being reimagined on the piano. Winter also included three previously unreleased compositions, lending the performance a unique, unearthed quality: ‘It All Fell In The River‘, ‘Emperor XIII In Shades‘, and ‘If You Turn Back Now‘.
The set concluded with the 2024 double singles, ‘Take It With You‘ and ‘Vines‘, solidifying the album as a compelling collection of both new and rediscovered material.
The finished project is set for release on October 9 via Partisan Records and Play It Again Sam, available across digital platforms, CD, and vinyl. Fans can pre-order the music directly through the provided links.
Beyond the music, the performance carried a fascinating cinematic dimension. During the gig, attendees noticed director Paul Thomas Anderson filming the set using Panavision 35mm gear, reportedly assisted by actor and filmmaker Benny Safdie. This intersection of music and cinema added an unexpected layer of intrigue to the event.
Anderson, renowned for directing masterpieces like ‘There Will Be Blood’ and ‘Phantom Thread’, often lends his eye to visual storytelling. His involvement in capturing this performance suggests a deep appreciation for the raw, cinematic quality of live musical experience.
The success of Winter’s solo shows is reflected in the critical reception of his past performances; a recent London gig received a glowing five-star review, praising the musician’s magnetism and talent.
The momentum continues as Winter continues his tour dates with Geese, including highly anticipated festival slots at Reading & Leeds and End Of The Road in September. These engagements will continue to bring the unique sound of Geese to wider audiences across the UK.
