‘Difficult Woman’, the ninth album for Renée Geyer, will be released for the very first time ever on vinyl on 15 March 2024.
The title track from ‘Difficult Woman’ was written for Renée, about Renée by Paul Kelly. In 2020 I spoke with Renée about her reaction with Kelly first presented the song to her. “There was a little bit of silence at the beginning, I think. And then ‘oh …. Thanks’,” Renée Geyer told Noise11. When somebody has written a song for you called ‘Difficult Woman’ it is ‘cause for pause’. Buy I love it. What a great addition to my career, you know. It is wonderful”.
Renée passed away on 17 January 2023 at the age of 69.
