Reliably informed

Georgia May—singer-songwriter, community musician and proud ‘Nigeordian’—blends soulful, ethereal vocals with honest lyricism shaped by her Geordie-Nigerian heritage. Her latest single Dynamite is a raw and resonant tribute to a friend facing mental health struggles, channelling shared experience into a track that’s both emotionally grounded and sonically bold.

Sonically, the track unfolds in swirling beams of synths reminiscent of early-noughties dance music, underpinned by bold beats and rolling rhythms that create a glowing, kinetic foundation. Georgia’s soulful vocal cuts through with reverberant radiance, rising above the mix with a chorus that bursts into the ether—expansive, and emotionally charged.

Here, Georgia tries to encapsulate the sounds of her latest single using three other artists…

Clementine Douglas
Clementine Douglas has those beautiful vocals over banging horse tunes she manages to make each track so catchy with her hook writing. I love her collaboration with Duke Dumont on the track Ain’t Giving Up On You, as well as her track Asking with Sonny Fodera. I’m not sure their exact writing process but she makes each track come into itself with her vocal.
 
Kattison
Another influential producer Kattison, who actually co-produced Dynamite, he also heavily influenced my writing style and the bones of the track. I love his tracks Up and down, Groover and Adrenaline. 
 
RAHH 
A gorgeous vocalist on a track called Sunshine with producer D.O.D which I had on rotation this summer when I was writing both Dynamite and Oshun State (my two most recent singles).
