![]() It ultimately leaked on February 18, 2010. Advance copies of the album were only sent to music critics a few weeks before its release in an attempt to prevent a leak, since Newsom's previous album leaked months ahead of its original release date after it was left unprotected on servers belonging to music review website Pitchfork. Otherwise, information about Have One on Me surfaced slowly, mostly being kept secret by the press and Drag City. The title of the album and its official release date were officially announced on January 12, 2010, through a comic strip. Because of health problems, Newsom's voice was damaged during the sessions consequently affecting the overall recording process and forcing the harpist to change her singing style. The album is also her first since The Milk-Eyed Mender to include songs played on the piano instead of the harp. The production also flirts with genres such as jazz and blues in some of the tracks, while adding drums and the electric guitar in others. Have One on Me continues Newsom's use of cryptic, pastoral lyrics, with a further progression of elements of her sound such as the orchestral accompaniment and the arrangements – with the inclusion of diverse instruments like the tambura, the harpsichord and the kaval. It is a triple album produced by herself and mixed by long-time collaborators Jim O'Rourke and Noah Georgeson, with the accompanying arrangements by Ryan Francesconi. Have One on Me is the third studio album by American singer-songwriter Joanna Newsom, released on Februvia Drag City as the official follow-up to the harpist's highly acclaimed second studio release, 2006's Ys.
