The EP garnered radio airplay for the singles "The Beat Stuff" and "The National".

Starbucks licensed "The Beat Stuff" for play in its cafés.[4] During her tour to support the EP, a commercial music supervisor also saw her performance in New York City, and licensed her new non-album track, "You've Got a Place Called Home", for use in a Wal-Mart commercial.[4]

Georgas won CBC Radio 3's Bucky Award for Best New Artist in 2009.[1]

gollark: Also, speaking of the zero width character thing, if you did also want transferable-through-screenshot information too, and had control of the display of the text in question, you could probably also vary the colors of each character very slightly or overlay nearly-invisible-but-technically-there QR-code-type things.
gollark: Until you want to use highly advanced concepts like "lists of multiple items".
