Our special guest prizewinning jazz singer Georgia Mancio talks frankly about becoming a lyricist almost by accident, collaboration as a song-writer, the layers of a song including melody, lyrics, story and social conscience, dealing with a vocal cyst as a recording artist, working with Gillyanne on voice habilitation after surgery, the difference between experiencing a performance, organising a festival, creating an album and writing song lyrics, winning a best album award in 202, 0influences in lyric writing including bereavement and why sometimes the show mustn’t go on.
There’s a voice nerd moment when we talk about why Jeremy admires Georgia’s diphthongs! And we play songs from her latest collaboration with Grammy-winning pianist/composer Alan Broadbent, and Quiet Is The Star.
