Raw unfiltered emotion is really important to me too. Empowering. All-encompassing energy. Honest, reflective, vulnerable lyrics. The track\u2019s made from organic sounds to give it a solid\/interesting\/<wbr \/>distinguishable vibe in the pop world. And just in general, this song marks the first of many where I\u2019ve felt a shift as a songwriter in that I feel like I can be more vulnerable with my story-telling. Being about heartbreak and mistakes in love, I wanted to emphasize the feeling of loneliness in expansive environments, but ultimately transition into a feeling of empowerment. Nature has always healed pain for me so it was an ode to that.&#8221;<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">To coincide with the release of &#8216;Fools&#8217;, we asked Georgia Mae six quick questions.<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!-- Random Ad stuff --><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display: block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-2076862002005673\" data-ad-slot=\"3107208401\" data-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins><\/p>\n<p><script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>EP: How does an Australian singer end up in LA?

But my LA story started a few weeks after I graduated from the Queensland Conservatorium; I was working with a producer in LA at the time so flew over with a bunch of music and managed to land work writing for TV while I met with other artists\/producers and got my bearings. Moving my whole life to LA at that point was a bit premature so I ended up spending the next year or so back in Australia working remotely and building up my artist project. In 2017, I did the big move but to San Francisco first &#8211; I somehow managed to score a job in Sound Design at Skywalker Sound (like\u2026you\u2019d just casually bump into George Lucas at lunch, what even?!). Then about six months ago, LA was calling so I finally made the move to focus solely on music.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">[space height=&#8221;10&#8243;]<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>EP: Who\u2019s your inspirations musically, and personally?\u00a0<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">[space height=&#8221;10&#8243;]<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">GM: I reckon our sources of inspiration are ever-evolving, but at the moment, I\u2019m getting a lot out of Ariana Grande and Troye Sivan\u2019s new albums, Eminem\u2019s &#8216;Kamikaze&#8217; is insane, Halsey, Childish Gambino, I\u2019m obsessed with John Mayer, Lorde, Tove Styrke, Taylor Swift is my freaking hero, Julia Michaels, Sia, I will never say never to Biebs, Flume\u2026and bands like Radiohead, Chilli Peppers, Coldplay, Floyd, Opeth, Smashing Pumpkins and Zeppelin shaped a lot of my growth as a musician\u2026I definitely don\u2019t stick to one genre when it comes to musical inspiration, rather, view pop music as a structural guide and seek out whatever else tells a story well. And personally, my parents will always be my biggest inspiration. Hands down.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">[space height=&#8221;10&#8243;]<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>EP: What\u2019s been the best piece of advice you\u2019ve ever been given as regards your music career?

My high school motto has proved it\u2019s worth over the years! And also to be authentic. It\u2019s easy to get caught up in trends or what\u2019s popular\/not popular but I think if you stay true to what\u2019s unique and different about you as an artist, your music will always be relevant and meaningful. And it\u2019s not really advice but defs not helpful when people say \u201cthings will just fall into your lap\u201d. They don\u2019t.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">[space height=&#8221;10&#8243;]<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>EP: What\u2019s your take on the state of the music industry at the moment?\u00a0<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">[space height=&#8221;10&#8243;]<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">GM: Hmmm there are probs a few parts to this\u2026musically, I think we\u2019re more open-minded and accepting then we\u2019ve ever been (both as artists and listeners) which is resulting in bold, empowering, exciting and deeply personal, meaningful music. On the other hand, we\u2019re seeing a lot of repetition and similarities in songs\u2026but I don\u2019t think that is a bad thing. Especially for pop. And of course, the most powerful statement being made right now is a reflection of one that has spread all around the world in most other industries too &#8211; gender equality. It\u2019s been a revealing time where a light has been shone on the ugliness of sexism, gender inequality and discrimination in all facets of music, but it\u2019s also encouraged positive shifts to amend the damage that\u2019s been done and restructure to fuel a more equal future. At the end of the day, I think we\u2019re in a positive, innovative and exciting time in music.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">[space height=&#8221;10&#8243;]<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>EP: What\u2019s next for Georgia Mae?\u00a0<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">[space height=&#8221;10&#8243;]<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">GM: Music music music.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">[space height=&#8221;10&#8243;]<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>EP:\u00a0 What question do you wish someone would ask you in an interview, but nobody ever does?\u00a0<\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">GM: Thoughts on Trump?<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">You can find out more about Georgia Mae online on her <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/iamgeorgiamae\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/iamgeorgiamae\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/iamgeorgiamae\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a> accounts. \u2018Fools\u2019 is available to stream and download from <a href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/album\/fools\/1435607685?i=1435607690\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">iTunes<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/album\/1ac3ze4IfwZOgYKZGps3jJ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Spotify<\/a>.<\/div>\n<div>[space height=&#8221;10&#8243;]<\/div>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?url=https%3A\/\/api.soundcloud.com\/tracks\/501902511&amp;color=%23ff5500&amp;auto_play=false&amp;hide_related=false&amp;show_comments=true&amp;show_user=true&amp;show_reposts=false&amp;show_teaser=true&amp;visual=true\" width=\"100%\" height=\"300\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We covered California based Australian singer Georgia Mae a few weeks ago, with her single, &#8216;Girl Next Door&#8217;.
