We were swift to shower George Maple with praise when the Australian singer songwriter made her debut over four years ago and took our breathes away with her sultry smoldering performances on songs like Fixed and Uphill. She went on to work with production greats like Snakehips and What So Not, and she dazzled us at SXSW a few years ago. We’re delighted to note that she’s been back recently with some new music, of which the latest is empowering Magic Woman, her first single on indie label etcetc. Now LA-based, George Maple draws inspiration from the end of a relationship and rises like a phoenix on the arresting R&B ballad. It’s a bold, sizzling track with shades of Mary J Blige mixed in with a dark edge evocative of visceral Sevdaliza and broiling BANKS. George Maple also launched a brand new live show named Utopia in Melbourne last month. It’s a live conceptual experience, as written, directed, and designed by Maple. Hopefully, we’ll get to see the show on tour in North America at some point. 

She explains of the show: “My vision was to create a performance space for multiple mediums to interact. A place where narrative, performance, technology and art could share a language. A place for communities to unite in the name of storytelling. The show is a multi-layered spectacle based on the film synopsis I wrote prior to this upcoming record. The show is called Utopia and marks the completion of my last life cycle and an awakening into a completely new era.” 

It’s George Maple wrapped in plaaaastic in her new video for ‘Like You Used To,’ a haunting, reverb-heavy interlude capturing a relationship in its final agonising throes as the Aussie singer staggers her way through a smoky, red-lit dreamscape like something straight of the Twin Peaks reboot...

George Maple’s debut album Lover is out now.
