Georgia’s songs weave intimacy and belonging where there was previously conflict and unease. Dancing between deep self-reflection and playfulness, her songs’ themes carry depth and resonance. Inspired by the female folk singer-songwriters of the past (Joni Mitchell and Joan Baez) and present (Anais Mitchell and Adrianne Lenker), her style blends more traditional folk sounds with imaginative instrumentation and arrangements. In her live performances, she harnesses vocal freedom to carry both power and vulnerability. Audiences are gathered into a brief moment of connectedness, harmony and remembering. Accompanied by an ensemble of some of Vancouver's finest jazz and improvisational musicians, the full band sound is rhythmic, groovy and lush, defying the bounds of genre.
Georgia's most recent release January Mind is out now on Surkeus Records. |
"Beyond the stunning visuals of this album, it’s hard to ignore the sheer lyricism of Johnson’s songs. Every line is a poetry symphony, echoed by the warmth and comfort of the live performance." -The Permanent Rain Press |
