Experimental boundary pusher Tanya George, announces the launch date of her highly anticipated single release “Normality†on the 21st August 2020.
Written and created using her unique vocal looping techniques, the single has been engineered by Jimmy Alexander (Awaken I Am). “Normality†offers fans a new sound that Tanya found busking on the streets of Melbourne.
Speaking about her new single, Tanya says, "In 2020 we haven’t been living our normal lives so I wanted to challenge the preconceived notion of what makes ‘normal’ music. I did this by producing songs made only from my vocals so I could also share the message that voices are powerful when they come together. And in these difficult times, I feel that our collective voices will be what sees us through.â€
As a regular on the Australian festival circuit, Tanya has performed on a diverse range of stages including St Kilda Festival, Melbourne International Jazz Festival, Womadelaide, and Queenscliff Music Festival, where she won the 2018 QMF busking competition. Earning her stripes as a sensation in the Bourke St busking scene, Tanya has crafted and refined the art of combining elements of soul, jazz and pop, and delivers excellence through her unique and dynamic vocal looping setup.
After releasing her first solo EP “Sonder†with a sold-out launch at Revolver Melbourne, Tanya is gearing up to release her second solo EP “Normalityâ€. The first single “Writing Machineâ€, released October 31st, 2019, raced to Number 1 on the Triple J Unearthed charts and guaranteed her a sell-out show at Horse Bazaar.
The “Normality†EP is set to be released later this year, and is crafted solely from improvised vocal looping magic; Tanya elaborates “It was born purely on instinct, expression, and trust in my musical ability as a musician and a singer.â€
Tanya’s fresh, eclectic sound and her thirst and drive for an explosive career has gained her recognition by artist Herbie Hancock, artist/producer Don Was, and many others:
“Normality†is the third single from the upcoming EP of the same name due for release later this year.
