Georgia Lines – The Letter: 13th Floor New Song Of The Day
Aotearoa’s award-winning artist Georgia Lines has today released her first single of 2024, the emotive and soaring new track ‘The Letter’.
Here’s the record company blurb with more details:
Following the phenomenal success of her previous chart-toppers, ‘Monopoly’ and‘Romeo’, which both (on release) debuted as #1 Most Added song on the NZ Radioscope Charts, today’s release puts on full display the versatility and depth of Georgia’s songwriting skills. A heartfelt and emotive ballad, ‘The Letter’ showcases what Georgia does best; singing and playing piano, taking this release back to the gorgeous singer and songwriter craft of how she began as an artist.
“I am so excited to finally share ‘The Letter’, the first track to be released from my debut album!” says Georgia.
“Making this album has been such an incredible experience… pushing my creativity and musical capacity to the seams and I’m deeply proud of the body of work I’ve created. It’s pretty special finally getting to start sharing what I’ve been working on for the past two years. ‘The Letter’ was written on my first writing trip to Los Angeles at the end of 2022 and for me is one of the most special, honest and deeply personal songs I have ever written.”
Written during the same trip where Georgia wrote the hit single, ‘Monopoly’, ‘The Letter’ was co-written alongside Ricky Manning and Whakaio Taahi. Mixed by Nic Manders and mastered by Kog Studio, ‘The Letter’ highlights Georgia’s unparalleled ability to create an intimate connection through her lyrics, with the track offering a tantalizing glimpse into the musical brilliance that lies ahead for her debut album – THE ROSE OF JERICHO – set for release on June 7, 2024.
Also out today is the stunning, one-shot accompanying video, for ‘The Letter’.
“Our idea was to craft a beautiful, simple, yet captivating visual representation that gave room for the song to take centre stage,” reflects Georgia.
Georgia’s success is not surprising, given her impressive track record. She was named the AMA Breakthrough Artist of the Year in 2022, her EP HUMAN topped the Official Top 20 NZ Album chart, and her lead single ‘Faith’ held the top spot on the NZ Airplay Radioscope chart for four consecutive weeks. Her live performances have also received critical acclaim, and she has opened for international acts and performed at various showcases around the world including SXSW, Big Sound and Los Angeles iconic industry showcase, School Night.
This success was complemented by her electrifying showcase at SXSW, leading to her signing with Wasserman Music. The momentum from this event propelled her Spotify streams to an astounding 7 million. Recently, she completed her first US headline show at Hotel Cafe in Los Angeles, marking another milestone in her rapidly ascending career.
Aside from her musical accomplishments, Georgia also hosts a popular music web series called INTROS which is a series in which Georgia introduces her new favourite female and non-binary artists through a relaxed sit-down kōrero. Each episode focuses on the artist’s chosen song, delving into the story behind the song and the process of writing, before treating viewers to a live performance. In 2024 INTROS will be hosted on Rolling Stone AU/NZ for the first time!
With her distinct style, impressive songwriting prowess, and unwavering work ethic, Georgia Lines is undoubtedly an up-and-coming artist making waves in the music industry. With her debut album – THE ROSE OF JERICHO – set to be released on June 7, 2024, the anticipation only continues to build with today’s gorgeous release.
