Georgia Fields conjures a mesmerising spell of art-pop alchemy in her dynamic live show.

The singer-songwriter shifts deftly from electric guitar to mini-synth and textural vocal looping, “painting entire worlds with her tunes” (Frankie Magazine). Building vocal layer upon layer to create complex and ethereal arrangements, Georgia uses her voice like an instrument. It's no wonder the Sydney Morning Herald declared, "Georgia Fields dreams in fantastic Technicolor".

Whether performing solo or with her band of multi-instrumentalists, Georgia’s melodic, lyric-driven songs and genre-bending sound have earned her a reputation as one of our brightest and most compelling indie artists. She has supported some of Australia’s best loved artists, such as the Pierce Brothers, Katie Noonan, Clare Bowditch, Mia Dyson, Sally Seltmann, Didirri, Ella Hooper and Frente. Career highlights include a national television appearance on SBS’s RocKwiz, plus performances at Queenscliff Music Festival, Mullum Music Festival, Festival of Voices Tasmania, Melbourne Music Week (collab with string quintet from the MSO), St Kilda Festival, Brisbane Powerhouse, Melbourne Fashion Week, National Gallery of Victoria, ACMI, and Melbourne Recital Centre.

Georgia's recent third album Hiraeth was independently released in 2022 to critical acclaim. Produced with Josh Barber (Gretta Ray; Gotye), Hiraeth received extensive airplay on PBS FM, Triple R and community radio nationwide. The Australian Newspaper gave the album four stars, praising the “meticulously crafted art-pop arrangements”, and announcing “Hiraeth feels like a moment of arrival for Fields”. Beat Magazine was also wooed, declaring “her weightless vocal makes us feel airborne... Hiraeth beautifully encapsulates the rich complexity of the human experience.”

Georgia first made her mark on the Melbourne music scene in 2007, with her EP Drama on the High Seas of Emotion. Each CD cover was lovingly handmade from vintage Little Golden Books. A string of festival shows followed, and in 2010 Georgia released her debut self-titled album: a lush, orchestral-pop opus featuring her 15-piece Mini-Indie-Orchestra (strings, brass, woodwind, tuned percussion, rhythm section, plus a cordless drill and children’s toys). The debut LP was awarded Album of the Week for both ABC Radio National and Beat Magazine, and saw her perform on national television for SBS’ RocKwiz.
In the years that followed, Georgia continued to tour, write, collaborate (notably, a performance with a string quintet from the MSO for Melbourne Music Week), and graduated from university with a Bachelor of Music. Then in 2014, while pregnant with her first child, she began production on her sophomore album, recording this independently following a successful crowd-funding campaign.
Astral Debris was released in 2016, again to critical acclaim – including a 4-star review in The Sydney Morning Herald, who described it as “alluring” and “irrepressible pop”. The Herald Sun hailed Astral Debris as “her finest, most expansive work yet”. Produced in collaboration with electronic artist/composer Tim Shiel, the album received airplay on Double J, ABC Radio National, and community radio across the country – in particular PBS FM and Triple R, who both included Astral Debris amongst their feature album shortlists.
In 2017, Georgia released Afloat, Adrift: a retrospective EP recorded live in collaboration with the Andromeda String Quartet. Raw and visceral, yet sweeping with an old-world romance, Afloat, Adrift featured new string quartet versions of material spanning her career. Frankie Magazine premiered the release, proclaiming “Georgia Fields has a voice you simply cannot un-hear… The evocative songstress paints entire worlds.”
Her latest offering Hiraeth is a widescreen vision of melodic, artful pop. The album takes its title from a Welsh word with no direct translation, referring to a profound longing for a home you can’t return to as it no longer exists. From stories of motherhood, infidelity and death – to rapturous anthems of healing and home – at its core, Hiraeth is an ode to the many languages of longing.
Thanks to funding support from both the Australia Council for the Arts and Creative Victoria, the album was recorded over a 6-month period in producer/drummer Josh Barber’s own studio – a 1930s converted church at the back of his property on Dja Dja Wurrung country (regional Victoria). Georgia and Josh performed almost all instrumentation across Hiraeth, with Jules Pascoe (Jazz Party; Husky) contributing bass guitar, and the Andromeda String Quartet making an appearance on three tracks.
Georgia is currently working on material for her fourth album.
