Georgia is an advocate for music with a social conscience. An alert listener of music, politics and people, Georgia has developed a calling to use music for social awareness: as a public voice with a positive social conscience, as a politician without the tie or the hidden agenda, as a woman with a whole lot of love, and as a human being with a few stories to tell. Aided by her piano which doubles as a family heirloom, the bashed up Suzuki guitar she learnt on, and her glistening new classical semi-acoustic, Georgia writes most solo, however is currently working on some new projects.
