"Harmonium" is Vanessa Carlton's follow up to her multi-platinum debut Be Not Nobody, which had the number one single "A Thousand Miles" and top ten single "Ordinary Day". She wrote it while on tour and on sojourn in San Francisco. Stephan Jenkins of Third Eye Blind produced Harmonium and it was recorded in San Francisco and Los Angeles over the last year. "Harmonium" takes its name from a vintage instrument which combines piano and flute. To Vanessa it means bringing difficult, chaotic things, things that have trouble fitting in one's life together to achieve harmony. Each of Harmonium's ingenious and individual tracks are unified by the talents of this unique musician and the purity of her voice. The result is a wholly authentic new album from Vanessa Carlton, and it marks her emergence as a musical stylist.
