Singer-songwriter and sonic shapeshifter Georgia Fields presents her String Theory National Tour 2025. In an exciting collision of worlds, Georgia will collaborate with a different string quartet in each state, over 9 shows.
Audiences can expect evocative ‘strings’ versions of Georgia’s own songs, plus a couple of strikingly re-imagined covers. Material from her latest album Hiraeth will sit alongside deep-cuts from her first EP. Georgia will also incorporate live looping and vocal effects, boldly blurring the lines between modern chamber music and playful art-pop.
Across a diverse career spanning 17 years, Georgia has earned a reputation as an ambitious and intrepid artist. Her debut album featured a mini-orchestra of strings, brass, woodwind – as well as children’s toys and a cordless drill. Ever the chameleon, her sophomore release Astral Debris was produced with with renowned electronic artist Tim Shiel. Last year Georgia collaborated with Pub Choir, performing to a sold-out audience at Festival Hall.
“I have an eclectic palette, and that comes through in my music”, she says.
Growing up, Georgia studied the cello – although she didn’t win the approval of her teachers.
“I remember coming into my lesson, announcing that I wanted to play through distortion pedals. It didn’t go down well. Mostly because I hadn’t done any practice that week”, she laughs.
Despite leaving her cello studies behind in favour of voice, Georgia maintained a love of the instrument and as an adult returned to university to study composing techniques. Her unconventional approach led to work arranging for art-rock icon Olympia and ARIA award-winning vocalist Anthony Callea.
Now, thanks to funding support from Creative Australia, Georgia brings her evocative String Theory show to 9 venues across the country.
“I feel incredibly lucky to be working with some of the country’s finest chamber musicians.... And I finally get to put a cello through pedals!”
