Singer-songwriter and sonic shapeshifter, Georgia Fields presents her String Theory national tour in February and March.
In an exciting collision of worlds, Georgia will collaborate with a different string quartet in each state across nine shows.Art-pop meets chamber-folk with a sprinkling of experimental/ ambient soundscapes, as Georgia incorporates live looping and vocal effects with the strings, boldly colouring between genre lines.
Material from her latest album 'Hiraeth' will sit alongside deep cuts from her first EP. "I'm so looking forward to reinventing my songs with the quartet, and really leaning into the lushness of the strings. The texture of these instruments is so vivid."
Ever the chameleon, over the years Georgia has earned a reputation as an ambitious and intrepid indie artist. From string ensembles, to electronica producers and even choirs, Georgia is an ardent collaborator.
Last year, she joined forces with Pub Choir, performing to a sold-out 5,000-strong audience at Melbourne's Festival Hall. "I have an eclectic palette, and that comes through in my music! I love playing with sound; I get sonically restless."
If you're still on the fence about whether to grab a ticket for Georgia Fields' String Theory tour, here are five reasons why you should definitely be there.
1: String quartets are basically magic
Okay, let's get real. Strings make songs 87 per cent more beautiful (it's science). Whether it's swooping emotional highs or delicate whispers, these wooden soundboxes will work their magic on you – and not just any soundboxes, either! Georgia is working with the country's top orchestral players. These guys are legit. If you've never seen a string quartet up close, this is your chance.2: It's an art-pop and chamber music mashup like you've never heard before
Picture lush, atmospheric string arrangements paired with Georgia's evocative art-pop songs. Now add some live looping, beatboxing, and vocal effects. It's a truly unique fusion of sounds. After all, Georgia's never met a musical boundary she didn't want to stretch!More than your average gig, the String Theory tour is an experience that combines the unexpected, the beautiful, and the downright fun.
3: Georgia is charming and disarming
You know what's better than seeing an amazing musician perform? Seeing a musician who's also hilarious and can give you a guided tour through their set with unexpected wit. Georgia isn's just a frontwoman; she's a walking, talking delight. Come for the music, stay for the LOLs.
4: Collaborations help local music rise from the ashes
We know the post-pandemic live music scene in Australia is having a comeback, but the fact is, independent artists and boutique venues have faced slower recoveries when compared to major events and festivals.Georgia's tour isn't just a killer night of music, it's a chance to support the musicians, crew and venues who are the lifeblood of our music scene. When you grab a ticket, you're helping keep independent Australian music alive. Bonus music hero points.
5: Georgia tours with strings very rarely
Look, we're not saying this is a once-in-a-lifetime event, but. . . it's kind of a once-in-a-lifetime event. Georgia is based in Naarm (Melbourne), and while she's no stranger to performing, these string quartet collaborations are so rare.Think of it like spotting a unicorn – except the unicorn is live looping onstage and serenading you with beautifully reimagined versions of her most beloved songs. Get in while you can – you might be waiting a while for the next string-laden show.
