Georgia van Etten
“Enthralling audiences around the world with her refreshing creativity and rich vocal tones” – THE TELEGRAPH, UK
“Kicks off the year strong” – NME
Big, buttery voice and classic tunes. Georgia van Etten creates retro soundscapes while drawing inspiration from the modern political and romantic world. Keeping the art of songwriting authentic, Georgia writes alone, piano and paper in hand. She fuses genres seamlessly, moulding soulful melodies with folk, country, rock and cinematic pop to create something truly dreamy.
Originating from Australia, van Etten’s early years more closely mimic a retro American film, with her Father blasting country music down highways and her Mother playing 70’s Laurel Canyon tunes on the guitar. Much of her youth was spent performing with heavy bands like King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard, fronting large soul lineups, developing her songwriting through heroes including Lucinda Williams, Dolly Parton and Kate Bush and going on to write with artist Alice Ivy.
In a bold move, she packed one tiny suitcase and headed for London. Since then, she has built high respect among fellow musicians and wowed audiences globally, playing the likes of Porretta Soul Festival (Italy), Falls Festival (Australia), Raadpop (Netherlands), Montreux Jazz Festival (Switzerland), Ealing Blues Festival (UK) and headlined London Omeara.
Her debut EP ‘Live at the Pool Studio’ had extensive BBC Radio 2 play with Jamie Cullum remarking “This really blew me away when I first heard it” and Blues & Soul Magazine UK declaring “Put simply, this is a damn fine EP”. The EP also sparked attention surrounding van Etten’s unique mouth trumpet impression, with a clip going viral on media giant UNILAD SOUND.
Recently signed to Canadian record label Birthday Cake, founded by The Bros. Landreth, her debut album ‘Deep Black Water’ gained a feature in NME, music video on MTV, heavy rotation on SiriusXM North Americana (US), BBC Radio 2 play and a feature session on BBC Radio 4’s Loose Ends.
