Rachael Yamagata has reunited with Happenstance producer, John Alagia (Dave Matthews Band, Jason Mraz, Liz Phair) to release her third album, Chesapeake. Praised by critics for her intimately confessional songwriting and arrangements, this new release is a work of 'creative spontaneity' that simultaneously reflects a newfound control in the singer/songwriter's life. 'Chesapeake has been made with a lot of love in the room,' says Yamagata. 'And like the Frankenfish that can swim and walk on land, [it] is surprising the hell outta me.'
