Georgie Buchanan

ShireFolk brings exceptional artists in the Folk & Roots scene to pop-up spaces in Worcestershire, Herefordshire & Shropshire. "This is beautiful, subtle and sophisticated folk music.

Ethereal yet rooted. I can’t wait to hear more from Georgie Buchanan.”
– Miranda Sykes (Show of Hands) Hailing from the North Shore Mountains of Canada and the Chiltern Hills, Georgie has always felt most at home creating music in the rich landscapes of the natural world.

Since immersing herself in the folk world she’s performed with Show of Hands on the main stage of Sidmouth Folk Festival, been selected for Sound and Music’s highly competitive New Voices Programme and had one of her original songs ‘Love is a Rocking Wave’ played on The Nest Collective’s ‘Singing with Nightingales, Homecoming Broadcast’ hosted by Sam Lee.

In 2021 Georgie was selected to take part in the English Folk Expo’s Artist Mentoring Programme and has performed at Focus Wales and Cambridge Folk Festival. In 2022 she supported renowned folk acts Ye Vagabonds, Katherine Priddy and John Francis Flynn. Georgie crafts haunting musical landscapes of harmonies and shimmering instrumentals.

Interweaving traditional melodies with original compositions, songs and stories, Georgie’s music speaks of a heartfelt connection with the natural world and charts a personal story of recovery that is relatable at its core. "Gorgeous" – Guy Garvey, BBC 6Music "Exquisite" – Hannah Peel, BBC Radio 3
