Georgie Winchester
ABOUT
From Wonnarua Country, Maitland NSW, Georgie Winchester grew up on a remote cattle farm with two sisters, dial up and Disney Channel. As well as being an obsessed Hannah Montana fan, Georgie took a liking to her father’s extensive CD collection, The Beatles especially. Georgie picked up classical piano at age 7, sang in choirs and joined the school jazz band scatting Ella Fitzgerald and Diana Krall.
When Georgie finished up a politics degree in Melbourne, she picked up the guitar for the first time and wrote a song after watching Stella Donnelly live at a Uni gig. Since then, Georgie pivoted, moved home, studied audio engineering at SAE and started up a career in music.
Georgie released her self-recorded debut folk album ‘Follow The Sound’ in 2023 and supported the likes of Thelma Plum, Smith Street Band, Kim Churchill, The Rubens, Clare Bowditch, Steph Strings, Andy Golledge & The Whitlams.
In 2024, Georgie was the recipient of the Australian Independent Records Association, Women In Music Mentorship program working with manager/artist Al Parkinson, is an artist-in-residence at the Newcastle Lighthouse and showcased at the 2024 International Folk Alliance, Kansas City USA in March. Georgie recently released a single collaboration with friend Joel Leggett and another with DJ artist Just A Gent.
Georgie recorded and released an EP with platinum-award winning producer & engineer Garrett Kato (Ziggy Alberts, Angus & Julia Stone), and supported this release with a 60+ date Australian tour supporting Maple Glider, Smith Street Band, Le Shiv & Bob Evans, with the help from a Create NSW grant. On this lap around Australia, Georgie wrote her upcoming self-titled rock and roll album, and recorded it after tour at Dashville Festival Studios.
Georgie has made plans to tour Canada and showcase at the 2025 International Folk Alliance, and will release her sophomore album independently.
