SEPT 2011:: NEWS: Out of thousands of auditions from across the nation, Georgia was recently chosen as one of Canada's top 8 bands competing for $100,000 and a recording contract with Universal Music on CBC's Cover Me Canada.
Only a heart hungrier than a black hole can navigate utterly random phenomena, like performing with the Canadian Tenors one night and opening for Talib Kweli the next. Singer/songwriter Georgia Murray lives for this and her music and determination have gained the respect of another captain-on-a-mission.
"I can tell you that Georgia Murray's songs and melodies put a smile on my face," William Shatner said. "She writes her own music and her passion for her craft comes out oh so well."
Georgia may have grown up at her parents' remote fishing lodge in northern BC, but her sights were set higher than sea level. After spontaneously belting out a Little Mermaid tune to their diners at age
3, Georgia became the lodge's feature performer.
Blast ahead. Georgia got a major break from one lodge patron, TV writer/producer David E. Kelley who wrote a part for her as a lounge singer into his show, Boston Legal.
The randomventure continues, opening for artists like Jon and Roy, Warren G, KOS, Shad, Atmosphere and Jurassic 5, privately performing for Warren Buffett, earning credit for a single by Korea's biggest star, which copied Georgia's original song note-for-note and topped Korea's charts. You might've even seen her singing anthems at arenas like Madison Square
Gardens for NHL and NBA teams.
Georgia's flown through all of Victoria and Vancouver's best venues, with a sound labeled "alternative" and "dark soul," mixing Gnarls Barkley, Portishead and Adele. Sorry, Little Mermaid.
She's blipped on many radars, like The Province's "Monthly Musical Pick" twice in six months, and Entertainment Tonight, who called her
"Canada's own singing sensation."
And another exciting trek begins, Georgia's currently recording material for her debut album with her chief creative partner, D Whiz and others
