Influences70's folk rock, love, funky bass grooves

noise, silence, and unbridled optimism

high fives, whiskey and two-stepping

Sounds LikeDusty, modern folk pop with enough hooks to be accessible to anyone. Definitely not a throwback, but certainly nostalgic.

   About The Georgian Company
Photo of The Georgian Company

"The band has been honing their sound into a smooth and powerful country pulse, mellow and emotive with intricate layers and excellent steel guitar. The surprisingly tight sextet (now with two added backup vocalists!) is on the shortlist of bands we’re keeping an eye on..." -Austin Sound

"A gorgeous, rose-colored vision of what Red River feels like without the hum and bluster of SXSW. It’s the real fabric of Austin with a side of the Hill Country: rhythm heavy, epic indie country with keys, virtuoso pedal steel, and George’s sweet vocals." -The Rich Girls Are Weeping

"The Georgian Company drapes its emotive alt-country in lush atmospherics, evoking the effect of looking at a vintage photograph turned yellow and hazy by the passing of time." -Decider Austin

Please contact Kevin at (((double stereo))) for booking.

George it was a pleasure meeting you at the Hole in the Wall last Saturday at the One Mississippi and Champeen show. I survived (Barely) the free drinks. The ep sounds great, count me as a fan.
