In March 2021, Georgia released her 8th album – Quiet Is The Star, and the second in partnership with Grammy-winning pianist/composer Alan Broadbent. Their first album, Songbook (2017), was launched at a sold out headline show at Ronnie Scott’s (“unequivocally, one of the gigs of the year” Jazzwise) with subsequent performances across Europe and the US, including famed New York clubs Dizzy’s (Jazz at Lincoln Center), Kitano and Mezzrow

Georgia’s previous release, Finding Home (2019), was co-produced with tonight’s pianist/composer Kate Williams and her acclaimed Four Plus Three ensemble with special guest classical guitarist John Williams. Critically lauded it won Best Album in 2020 Parliamentary Jazz Awards.

From 2010-2014 Georgia produced her now iconic  ReVoice! Festival in association with the Pizza Express Jazz Club.

Since 2017 Georgia has produced 3 editions of her new series, Hang, showcasing her ever-evolving creativity as a curator and her collaborative kudos and versatility with several top artists.

Be spellbound by Georgia, with Alan Broadbent on piano, singing her delightful and evocative composition “That Time Of Year”.

Joining Georgia for this Jazz Divas 2021 concert are the remarkable pianist Kate Williams, Julie Walkington - double bass and on drums by Dave Ohm, voted best drum soloist in the London Jazz Festival series at The Other Palace.
