Once again, we are here on a Wednesday night. That was Gabby Rivers and her track called Medicine. And if you're watching us on YouTube, you'll have seen the video. But you might also be listening to us on DAB Digital Radio this evening. And if you are, then hello, welcome to the show. The New Music Generator is a two-hour weekly radio programme dedicated to supporting emerging artists from across East Anglia. My name is Tim Willett, and I am your host for the next two hours. We'll play you lots of music that's been sent in to us to play on the programme in the next couple of hours. Plus, we've also got a live studio guest, singer songwriter, George Byrne, will be here chatting to me about his upcoming single release and just getting to know him generally, having a chat. But he's also going to play live, and we're looking forward to that. If you want to get in touch with the programme, or if you want to send your music to us, you can do so via the email address, inbox at new musicgenerator.com. If you are an artist from East Anglia, and by that I mean Cambridgeshire, Suffolk, Norfolk, uh Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire, or Essex, and you want your music to be played on the show, get in touch, send your music to us via an MP3 or WAV format attachment to an email. And ensure please you give us links to your social media and a biography so we know a little bit about you, and we'd be very pleased to hear from you. So we're live on DAB tonight across Suffolk. We're also on YouTube and on Instagram at New Music Generator, and we have a little celebration to make because we did cross over the 200 YouTube subscribers mark just about an hour ago. So if you would like to add, because I'm never satisfied, we've reached 200, now let's get to 250. Uh go on to our YouTube channel at New Music Generator and give us a follow, subscribe on there. It doesn't cost you anything. Just means you can uh get in touch with us on the live chat, which uh Brooke is doing at the moment. Hello, Brooke. Uh and you can also obviously watch back our live shows. Uh, if you are watching on the video, then some of the tracks you'll be able to see the music videos for. You'll also be able to see me and any guests live in the studio. Right, let's move on and play you a track from last week's playlist. This is Cambridgeshire's um producer and um, I guess composer, uh Ben Moleholland, aka Moleholland Jive, and his brilliant new track. This is called Jurassic Shark. Which is quite difficult to say as a radio presenter. Even more difficult to say when you were a radio presenter that decided he would book quite um intrusive dentistry uh today, uh this morning. So I did go to the dentist um and I was a very good boy, and I was there for over an hour. It was quite a lot of work. Don't eat lots of sugar, it's probably my uh as I'm as I'm lying there, I'm thinking I should really cut back on the sugar. And then I come home and I have like a glass of full sugar orange squash and forget about that thought. Um but yes, I'm pleased to say that the numbness has worn off now and also not in any pain, which is also good. So uh doing a radio show whilst half of your mouth is basically completely numb was uh was quite a uh a daunting prospect, but we're we're all good. So Jurassic Shark, I can say it clearly and precisely. Uh this is the new music generator broadcasting uh across East Anglia and around the world uh supporting new music from across the region. Um and we're gonna uh play you a new track now. By the way, that um Marlon Gy track is out on Friday, uh the 17th. And we're gonna play you a new track now from singer-songwriter Macy Nyer. This one is out tomorrow, that's Thursday, as uh we're broadcasting live Thursday the 16th. Uh, and it is uh titled The Devil Wears What She Wants. It's a track that empowers uh women who live unapologetic unapologetically on her own terms, wearing what she wants, doing what she wants, and refusing to be defined by society's expectations instead of being feared or judged. Her confidence and independence are something to be celebrated. This is Macy Nyer. The devil wears what she wants.

SPEAKER_07

Stirring up mayhem. Doesn't really matter what the price tags say in her own play pen, dressed up in denim. She's the inspiration on the mood board you're making. Uh, uh, uh Yeah, it's a rubian blue, but what's it do? Uh, uh, uh And it's pretty cute from a down interview. The devil has what she wants, and she looks good in it. She looks so good in it. Knows standards lips on her watch, and we all want a bit, we crave the taste of it. Holding on to her feet, eating up at her feet, bagging for just a pizza for just a pizza. The devil has what she wants And she looks good at it, she looks so good at it Say you don't like her, but you'll kill the view with her. She's the best accessory, the front page feature. You wanna join in, be where the noise is, the flow rose in spring, hot the groundbreaking. Uh uh, uh Yeah, it's a crimson red. Get that into your head. Uh uh, uh And it's pretty cute, but she's laughing at you. We pray the tape, that's what she wants. That's what she wants. That's what she wants, that's what she wants. That's what she wants, that's what she wants. The devil has what she wants, and she looks good and eh, she looks so good and eh.

SPEAKER_16

NMG Award-winning artist from last year, Macy Nyer, and the Devil wears What She Wants. Uh, on the NMG Awards, by the way, if you are a singer-songwriter, um, band, producer from East Anglia, and if your music is featured on the programme with an original release um uh anytime uh before the end of May, uh then you will be eligible to be considered for a nomination for this year's awards, which are on September the 11th, held at the Apex in Barry St. Edmunds. So if you haven't uh if you're listening yet anything, or I haven't released anything since uh the last event, which was last September, through until uh the end, or you're not gonna release anything through until the end of May. You might want to reconsider things if you fancy a nomination because uh yeah, time is running out. The end of May is literally about six weeks away. Um so uh yeah, get your skates on and make sure you send your music into us, inbox at new musicgenerator.com. Hello to uh Sue, she's listening on uh DAB tonight, listening uh live briefly. She says, Oh, we'll catch up on the rest tomorrow. Glad you are back. Glad I'm back on the radio Sue. How long were we off the radio for? Uh two months. Yeah, about two months. The show is back on proper radio tonight. Uh we are on YouTube and we will continue to be on because I like uh doing the uh the visualized stuff and I think it's uh it adds an extra element. But there's nothing quite like being back on the proper radio. And we're on a bigger radio station than we were before anyway, so you know, quite frankly. Um hello to Brooke, who's uh in the YouTube chat, um, and she says she's made Wednesdays her daily routine. I think you said you're in Canada, Brooke, didn't you? So it's not Wednesday evening where you are, but um at some point on Wednesday, she said you can expect me to be in the audience a lot more often. Um and she's told Myopia about our new show announcement that we made last week. Um on our YouTube channel, we're gonna be adding lots of other uh content, lots of other programming. And uh we had Alex here last week, who's gonna be hosting a new series called Behind the Music, which is an in-depth interview series uh that's gonna be getting underway very soon. And uh she's told myopia about that. I have heard from Myopia about that, actually haven't told Alex yet about it. We'll get them on at some point, I'm sure. Right, let's continue with the music, and this one is brand new, released last Friday from the Suffolk Barris and Edmonds based group Jaded Teeth, who headlined the inaugural Columbia night that happened at the Apex in Barrison Edmonds last Friday. Um it was an event that I was uh co-promoting and um was very, very pleased with the outcome. It's been um Barrison Edmunds has got a great music scene, thriving music scene, and everyone's very supportive of one another. For years, um Seymour has uh been doing the washing machine night at the Hunter Club, and uh we're pleased that the Hunter Club is uh going to be back open up and running for live games very soon, um, after some recent changes. Um but the Apex is somewhere that um we've tried to get um young people through the door and and provide opportunities for young bands to perform on that stage. And obviously we do that with the NMG Awards and we do that with the very same final that we hold there. Um but Club of Columbia was a new initiative and we were really pleased with the way that it was received. Um we had over 300 people in on Friday night. For um for local bands, and uh that was um chest uh who were um playing originally from Norwich, of course. Um Jaded Teeth who were the headline act, the Portland for over in Peterborough, and the opening act was meant to be Icarus, but unfortunately Tom from Icarus got taken ill at the last minute. So Chance for Good uh from Framlingham uh took their spot and uh did a very good job opening up the night. So we thank all of those artists. So this track was released on the same day as Club Columbia, and the band played it as part of their set.

SPEAKER_02

So this is new from Jaded Teeth, it's called Rio easy enough, went to stay with Nana Wondering if can I grab my bags and bubble At a gas recycle Human beings and idol Buy myself some new shoes War my way to find you Stuck to you like Lou We found Jesus at home Standing tall like Rio See my faith as a ghost that I keep the shade Wash my hands in my face Give yourself a new name Tryna gamble on fate Go down Alabama Place is bad on your stuff Tryna keep us apart Did you hear the fake rope By the eight of Gate bro Disconnect the devil Raised by mother Mary Joseph left the thirteen Who gotta ever find me but I keep pushing us Salvation now it's about the smart man and loser and it's gonna feel says the love from Jesus Blessing only teacher shepherd and muscle from my belly or will you take me all and there we go that is the new track from um Jaded Teeth.

SPEAKER_16

It is called Rio. I should have remembered that it was quite a short track, one minute and fifty-seven seconds. I don't think Jaded Teeth does many songs that are longer than about two minutes, to be honest. So that one uh almost caught me out there. Uh it's available now, you can stream in all the usual places, and uh so they are originally from uh Barry St. Edmunds, and I'm sure they'll be playing another gig in um the town very soon indeed. Later on, we'll mention the Bright in the Corners Festival Ordea again, which is happening in Ipswich, um I think next weekend. Um weekend after next week. Uh it's a free Ordea happening all over the town. It was the first time it's happened in Ipswich. Um, an Ordea music event has happened in Ipswich for a long time, if at all. Um so we'll make sure we mention that one uh later on JDT that have been involved in Bright in the Corners in the past as well. This is the new music generator. We are here every uh every Wednesday night for two hours of the best music from emerging artists from across East Anglia. And this next track is for fans of Wolf Alice, Soundgarden, Paramour, Evanescence, and Queens of the Stone Age, and we have an exclusive on it because it's not due out for release until the 8th of May. It's called The Sun and Moon. It's a tragic love story about celestial soulmates who are destined to be a part. Sometimes fate has different plans to our own, and this song is an ode to that. It is by singer-songwriter Gabrielle Ornate, and it sounds like this. Love Gabrielle's voice. That's Sun and Moon, the new single from Gabrielle or Nate. It will be out on the 8th of May, so you've got three weeks or so to wait for that, but I'm sure it'll appear on our playlist again at some point before then. I mentioned the Brighton the Corners All Day, which is happening in Ipswich on the 25th of April, so a week on Saturday. This is an all day event, a free all day event that's happening at various different locations around Ipswich. It is free to attend, as I say, and it's all linked to Brighton the Corners Festival, which is an annual summer event that uh that happens in the town. Uh they have today revealed their full lineup, so I'm just gonna go through and mention the NMG supported acts, which probably still quite a few, um, but otherwise I'll sound like I'm just reading a shopping list full of names. So uh these are the artists that are gonna be performing on the 25th of April, and I have to check the social media of Brighton the Corners to see exactly where they're all performing. Um but a different kitchen are there, NMG Award-winning artist from last year won the best rock category. After Black is involved, uh also playing A Chance for Good, who I mentioned a minute ago from Framlingham. You've got Chest, you've got the Detour, who are gonna be on this show as guests in um uh next week, actually. Um we're gonna play a track from them in a bit. Uh Eve's the Light, also um Hollow Waves, we're gonna play in a minute. Jaded Teeth, as I just mentioned, Juliet, she's also there. Loom is playing, um Mama O'No, uh Robin Torbit, Rice, Sabuku, and Zamana Fitri are the NMG artists that we've played before on that. There's also a load of DJs on there as well. Uh if you go to Bright in the Corners Ips on Instagram, you will find the full poster with the details on there. That's a week on Saturday, and we'll just do more on that on the show next week. Um so if you are watching us live on YouTube, you can get in the chat and say hello. Brooke is there. She's we've established that she is Canadian. And it is uh 2.25 pm in Canada at the moment where she is. But George, who we'll hear from in a minute, Brooke wants to know precisely and doesn't need to know your exact address, but precisely where you were from in Canada. Just curious, nearest city. And can you speak French, unlike the head of Canadian Airlines? That's the question. We'll come back to your answer in a little while. Uh you can also email us if you want to, inbox at new musicgenerator.com, and you're most welcome to get in touch. Whether you're listening to us live tonight on Wednesday or back again on another day. So, Hollow Waves, young band um based in and around Cambridge, are playing at Brighton the Corners. They're also in the final of the Cambridge Band Competition, which I think is also on that same date, or could be the day before. I need to check that. Um anyway, they've got a busy weekend coming up. This is their track called Eyes Shut. It's their debut single. I did say that I would look up uh the details of that and when the final is, and then completely forgot, so I'm now looking it up. Uh the final is on April the 24th, so that's next Friday. So actually it's they've got two gigs in two days rather than two gigs in one day, which is probably best. Um we're gonna speak to uh George in just a few minutes' time. Um before we do that though, we are going to play a track from Voyage, and quite handily it popped up in the chat on YouTube is Dan Sutton, who went to work um in the studio last week with Kyle, uh who's the uh the the main lead man of Voyage, and um they met each other at the NMG Awards, um having a a crafty uh smoke out the uh the front of the venue. I don't mind how people uh meet each other, whether it's uh indulging in uh in things like that or uh or or better. Um he says, Hope you're doing well. I am Dan, thank you. I'll wave at you on the camera. Hello Dan. Um Dan was our studio guest a couple of weeks ago and um was here actually with his uh with his electric piano, much like George's tonight. Um but yeah, um Dan went to go and work on a track with Kyle, and I've seen some video evidence of the uh of the production, and it looks like they got on like a house on fire. And the uh resulting track is gonna be uh bop, so I'm looking forward to hearing that. In the meantime, let's hear another bop that Carl's responsible for. These guys are from Harrich uh in uh Essex. This is uh Carousel.

SPEAKER_09

Also I make a crack, so stay with me and I'll just back Younger, if we take a game. What you give up Open your eyes and you will see any holiday with you will be luxury. Don't mind the little sick day, every day, fell down, fell back to that, no one watched out to die, every day, proud that mouth like a counter step. Start to start to start step to the kids, too. What you give up, we turn well down, round okay.

SPEAKER_16

Like that a lot. That is a that is the definition of a bop, that track. That's Voyage and their track called Carousel available now. And if you're watching on YouTube, you saw the music video for that as well. This is the New Music Generator. Uh, we're broadcasting live across Suffolk on DAB Digital Radio. We are online on YouTube and Instagram, and we are also available to listen to again as a podcast on our website. All the details of how you can listen to the show and the various different radio stations we are on are available on our website, newmusicgenerator.com. And if you want to send us your music, here is a reminder of how you can do so.

SPEAKER_17

To submit your music to the show, email an MP3 or WAV file to inbox at new musicgenerator.com. Ensuring you include a short biography and links to your social media.

SPEAKER_11

All submissions from within our coverage area in East Anglia will be considered for airplay.

SPEAKER_16

And hello to Dan again. He's listening and watching with his girlfriend there on holiday in North Wales. So uh hi Dan, thank you. It's time to say hello to another person. Our guest this week is Mr. George Bone. Hello.

SPEAKER_14

Hello, how are we doing? Very well, how are you? Yeah, not so bad. We could go in a circle doing this video. No, not how we do yeah, not so bad. Um, genuinely it is great to be here. It's great to uh be on YouTube and Instagram live and also Suffolk DAB as well. Yes. For the first time.

SPEAKER_16

For the first time for this show. First time for this show. It's an absolute honour. Thank you so much for having me. There we go. And we should probably get it out there now. I did say to you beforehand we wouldn't mention it, but I'm feeling brave.

SPEAKER_14

Okay, go for it.

SPEAKER_16

So, the first time that we are on DAB radio in Suffolk, and the listeners um to the station probably know this anyway, because I've been on the station for a while. But I am a and it's this brave saying this given what happened at the weekend. Let it all out, let it all out. I know I am I am a Norwich City fan, and obviously everybody, well most people that uh that listen are supporting Ipswich. You are also a Norwich City fan.

SPEAKER_14

I am also a Norwich City fan.

SPEAKER_16

So we're two Norwich City fans on a radio station in Suffolk, and that might be we might just been cut off at this point.

SPEAKER_14

Hello to all the new listeners, and also from that information, goodbye, I guess. Exactly.

SPEAKER_16

Exactly. It's fine. We wish you all the best. And thank thank you for visiting Norwich.

SPEAKER_14

It was it was very nice, um as he says, crying into the microphone. But yeah, anyway, that's beside the point. It is great to be here talking about music. Those tracks that we've just heard are absolutely brilliant.

SPEAKER_16

Yeah, you're enjoying those.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, they like like with the Voyage track, they were absolute bops, genuinely. Like the the talent in this area of the United Kingdom should not be slept on. It is so incredible. And then you've now got me in the studio. Why? But no, and all seriousness, thank you so much. Yeah, it's brilliant to talk about this new musical episode.

SPEAKER_16

How does it make you feel when you when you're sitting here and you're listening to all these amazing artists? Does it make you feel inspired?

SPEAKER_14

It does, because there are so many people that are from different musical perspectives, there are so many people who've had different musical journeys than you that it is so fun to hear where they have come from, hear the music that has inspired them, um, hear the the environment in which that has inspired them, um, and have a collectiveness of okay, we're taking on a bigger music industry controlled by bigger, but bigger and more powerful labels than we could ever hope, and we're making our individual world and the individual world of people around us so much better. And especially at this moment in time, I think that's the best thing that any of us can do, just make our own smaller world a bit brighter. And if you do that by releasing music, I will support you all the way.

SPEAKER_16

Yeah, definitely. George, do you remember the first time that we were introduced to each other? And I don't mean in person, I mean like in a weird player, I played your music on the show.

SPEAKER_14

I think it was the start of 2025. I think it was the start of 2025, but I released What a Beautiful Monday on March the 3rd. That's the song of the first time. Yes. Um, and that was the first song that I had got played on uh on the music generator, and it started uh a lovely little working relationship between the two of us as well. I've submitted every song that I've released since then. Granted, there have only been two up until the other point, but that's beside the point. Every song is still 100%.

SPEAKER_16

We appreciate it.

SPEAKER_14

But yeah, it's um it's grown into a relationship where I also um got nominated for um a best male artist at the NMG Awards last year, which was which was a pleasure to go to and interact with again so many brilliant independent musicians from the East Anglia region. Um and yeah, and now I'm back here as a as a guest, not only promoting um a new single that I've come got coming out, but maybe something bigger than that. Who knows? Najee Najwink wink.

SPEAKER_16

Off air, George told me quite a lot of things, and then we had I said, You've got a caveat, anything that I'm not allowed to say on air, because otherwise I will say it.

SPEAKER_14

Yes, and I've given that permission live to slip that in.

SPEAKER_16

Exactly. It's like when people send their music to me and they say, Oh, great to play your song, and I get back to them and I say, Oh great, you can be played this week, and they go, Oh no, sorry, I don't mean don't don't play it now. Can you play it in like, you know, three weeks' time, please? Oh. I'm like, well, you need to tell me that, otherwise I'm gonna just gonna play it anyway.

SPEAKER_14

On a serious note, that's like for all of the musicians listening who are sending in their bios, make sure that you have like in big bold letters embargo date until this time. Um and even then the radio station uh can slip it, uh slip it past accidentally, but then you know it's not your fault if you've done that.

SPEAKER_16

No, if you make if you put it in big letters at the top of the email, I will see it. I like to call it umbongo instead of umbargo. Do you remember umbongo? I do remember umbongo. That's probably a cultural reference that some younger people might object.

SPEAKER_14

An incredible reference to pull out of the hat on a Wednesday evening.

SPEAKER_16

Um so it's been it's been a year and a bit.

SPEAKER_14

It has, yes.

SPEAKER_16

And you said you came to the awards last year and you met a few are you saying you met Ross Stewart?

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, Ross Stewart's absolutely incredible. He uh performed and then won an award as well, and him sitting uh directly next to me in the seating plan with uh with this trophy that he brought down, and then having everyone gawk over how incredible his performance and voice was. And then I'm also there clapping and being like, Yeah, but also um they're absolutely incredible. And I met so many people. Um that was uh Macy who was um uh on the show earlier. Um I met them uh at the awards as well, Grace Calvary was at the awards as well, uh both incredible artists as well, and it was just so nice. Again, like I said, being in an environment with loads of different musos who come from different areas of music but all want to collaborate on the fact that hey, we're all in this together, a la high school musical. Yes, nice. I like you throw that reference in there.

SPEAKER_16

Oh, that's now an earworm that's gonna go around my head until I play it later on. Um, yeah, like that. Well, it's to say you're you're embracing what we're kind of trying to do here, which is kind of create a community that's very supportive of one another. Absolutely. Um and um yeah, it it motivates you and and uh and drives you on. And uh we'll see what this year brings you as far as the uh the awards go.

SPEAKER_14

I mean I'm incredibly excited for this year just to release and get music out there, and if people want to recognise it, they can, but they are under no obligation to.

SPEAKER_16

So let's go back to the very beginning in terms of your musical career. What what let what's led you to be here now? Who's inspired you to start writing and performing music?

SPEAKER_14

So I started singing in choirs around the age of five, so very choral stuff, and that's why I and ultimately went to to uh Durham to study music uh when when I was 18. But I I sort of learnt how to sing from choirs uh from the age of five onwards then um as as puberty hit you had to change the vocal layers very dramatically and then knew that to be a self-sufficient musician that I wanted to, I had to accompany myself uh with some sort of instrument or some sort of uh uh some sort of person to help me along the way, and I thought I needed to be self-sufficient, and it was either learning the piano or learning the guitar at the start of year 10, I believe. And learning that the guitar hurt my fingers, and I didn't want an instrument that fought back, so I learned how to play the piano, but um which was a good choice in the short term, long term carrying around one of those for gigs, especially in in London and around the country is fun. Um but it allowed me to become self-sufficient, and I got inspired by a load of country musicians who I was listening to at the time who were on my dad's iPod Nano Rotation, so Dan and Shay, Chris Stapleton, Darius Rucker, by extension Hootie and the Blowfish as well. Then when I went up to uni, there was a load of jazz inspirations because it was a very jazz-heavy uni as well. Tom Misher just released Geography, an incredible album, one of my top five favourite albums of all time, and that influenced me heavily to go in a different sonic direction. But then as COVID hit and I was dramatically evacuated from university, a lot of people were making a load of introspective, um, uh very DIY bedroom pop music. So Bruno Major's second album released, Eloise had released her her EP just before COVID, um, uh people like Leve were coming up as well, Lizzie McCallpine, um, and then Tom Mitch made a morb uh sort of insular album in 2020 as well to capitalize on that success. Let's go on, but the list goes on and on. Um, and so I've taken all of those cumulative successes and put them into a a collective smorgasborg of whatever this is as an artist project, and so the storytelling of country music mixed with sometimes the lovely, like lush soundscapes of of of commercials that presented itself in late 2010s.

SPEAKER_16

So you self-taught on the piano?

SPEAKER_14

I am, yes. Well technically I did grades up to grade two, um, got fed up and quit after that, and then I had to learn grades for at least something to get into union, and that was my voice. Um, but I recently just gave like a few uh piano lessons to people who were doing like like grade four and stuff like that. And it is so easy the transferable skills, not only from theory, but then also just doing lower grades that you can then pick up and then teach people and they don't need to take it as seriously as ABRSM forcing them to. Um but also it's just so easy just to get into music and the first obstacle to music is just playing in the first place. But yeah, all self-tour all derived from whatever is about here and the ideas and the expansions of of other people who have also listened. To on on the on the London and Essex and Suffolk Geeking Circuit as well.

SPEAKER_16

Okay. Well, I guess we should probably put some of this into practice.

SPEAKER_14

We probably should, yeah.

SPEAKER_16

George is going to do two live songs for us, and then we're going to play his uh new single um at the end, which is uh released at the end of this week. So, um what are you gonna play for us first?

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, so this song, first song is gonna be called Note from a Bottle, and it was written in January of 2025 with another brilliant singer-songwriter called Mac Adams. Um we had sort of a pseudo-therapy session on the sofa at the studio that we had booked out for the day. Um, and we were talking about the direction that we saw our lives going in, um, and especially looking back at sort of six-year-old self, reading the Oh, the places you'll go books, looking back and thinking, have we done everything that we wanted to set out to do in life, and maybe feeling a bit disappointed in ourselves. So, this is a song called Note in a Bottle. It's the it's the note that I would throw my older self to tell myself that everything was going to be fine. And this is the final lead single coming out on what is going to be a collection of work coming out later in September.

SPEAKER_16

Alright, when you're ready.

SPEAKER_09

A hue nood in a bottle long time ago, proud of the letters and answers I wrote, but wink like the sea with the pen my mom gave to me. So I we did through all the put my lips toward the glass. My little arm couldn't throw it that far. It drifted away. I hope that it's red someday. What if we do want it now? The stories and reasons be a few Would I feel guilty? Oh would I feel braid? Now I'm still waiting to hear the play. From the through side, it's all in some What is the water and songs? Look at all the messages changed them. Some messages through it loud something. See the mean I know I'd be happy with what I have done. I know it looks different from when I was young. I need to feel guilty, cause I make me proud that they're the first enough of me. I am now Thank you very much.

SPEAKER_16

Wow. Beautiful.

SPEAKER_13

Thank you.

SPEAKER_16

You've got some lungs on you when you want when you do those long notes and loud bits at the end. Yeah.

SPEAKER_14

Oh, bless you. That's that's genuinely really kind of you, thank you.

SPEAKER_16

Not just me, YouTube comments. Brooke says his singing is beautiful, OMG.

SPEAKER_14

Thank you, Brooke.

SPEAKER_16

And Dan says, My word, I forgot how good this dude was. There you go.

SPEAKER_14

Me graciously taking compliments being the secret narcissist to be like, keep keep keep him coming. But no, that's very kind of you, thank you so much. Um, thank you, Brooke, for uh for coming in from Canada as well from five-hour time difference.

SPEAKER_16

Yes, incredible. We didn't sign anything I said on air where you were from in the end, did we, Brooke? No, I don't think we did.

SPEAKER_14

To save identity, but also um incredible, um, incredible commitment to independent music from the United Kingdom that you're listening across the Atlantic.

SPEAKER_16

Listened or watched our first YouTube show um and has has been here ever since.

SPEAKER_14

Wow.

SPEAKER_16

So yeah. No way.

SPEAKER_14

Thank you, Brooke.

SPEAKER_16

Shout out to Brooke. Thanks, Brooke. And you can watch on YouTube. We are streaming live on YouTube, so if you want to see George and uh see him play uh live, then you can uh do that as well. And if you miss any of the show, you can always find it again to listen to on demand, and our podcast is available. Uh all the details on our website, new musicgenerator.com. So uh George is here and he is um from Essex, born originally in Norfolk.

SPEAKER_14

Born originally in Norwich, yeah.

SPEAKER_16

So what was it that took you from away from Norfolk?

SPEAKER_14

It was my dad's job, really. So he had qualified as a as a solicitor uh about four months before I was born. Um, and so um my parents moved down to Essex around when I was about four months old because they realized that he just qualified as a as a as a criminal uh solicitor as well. So there was more crime in Essex, so therefore there was more work to be had. Um and so the argument that my dad uh made to my mum, a difficult argument, was let's take our newly born son down to an area where there's statistically more crime from work. And she said, I'll go on then. Sure. Um and so I've been living down in Essex ever since, but um I've got loads of familial um relationships to to Norfolk. Um my my Nan still lives in um uh in Norwich itself, and a lot of my extended family are live in um Alsham, um, which is halfway on the Chroma Road. Um so a lovely area of the country that I'm so excited to visit every time I drive up there.

SPEAKER_16

So neither do you have a Norfolk accent or a typical Essex accent? I do not. This is a weird How have you managed this?

SPEAKER_14

This is a weird amalgamation of everything. Um I wanted to make sure, I realised especially when I was younger, I wanted to make sure that I wanted to stand out, but not in like the way of like clearly music has made me stand out, but also in a way of I didn't want to really like conform to the to the sounds that like I was I was given because like I remember like a lot of early 2000s pop just not sitting comfortably with me and not really finding a way how to do that and then finding my own identity as well from finding my my own voice and my own music. It definitely did help do in choir uh to make sure that my my voice was my voice was prim and proper. And I also did um uh drill stuff when I was younger as well, so marching as well. So that has allowed me to have quite a good posture.

SPEAKER_16

So you are sat in that chair very upright.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, for for people who are looking in. For people who are looking, this is what 13 years of drill does to you. Well that's good. That will serve you well when you're older and you don't have any back problems, or when I'm carrying around my piano right now and it degrades so quickly after that, but also at the same time, um uh making sure that talking properly to authority figures and stuff like that. That drilled that drilled any Essex or Norifluck accent uh out of me. Um and so whenever I'm at like family gatherings, um it does seem like me and at least my sister are the sort of uh sort of sore thumbs uh out there because we sound nothing like anyone else at the uh at the function. Um and so yeah, it's um it's it's fun to be like, oh, how are you related? But also knowing that like we're a hundred miles away down south, somewhere near South End, and also not sounding like someone from South End as well.

SPEAKER_16

Yeah. Do you think being closer to London has helped you in your music career?

SPEAKER_14

It's uh sad, I will have to say yes, but I'm saying it begrudgingly because London is such a big metropolitan hub that it's almost impossible to avoid as a musician. And I wish there were other places that functioned like London. Manchester and Liverpool obviously great infrastructures, but just don't have the sort of like the the sort of expanding budget and the expanding range that that London has. And even doing university up in um up in Durham as well, we had Newcastle to go to. Yeah, but they had their sort of specific sound that didn't really fit with anything that I was doing or making at the time. So a lot of my early career was crafting a sound out of trying to fit all of the Lego pieces of my life together into some sort of like like I said at the top of the show, some sort of schmoggersborg of whatever this is, and very heavily influenced by the small communities that help me to to become who I am. Like, for example, my hometown is um Southland Ferrars in Essex, about 10 minutes away from Wakeford. Um and there aren't many really like big music people from from around there. Like the big uh person that I'm thinking off the top of my head is Ollie Fox, and he got big about a year or two ago, and I've not really heard from from him since. Maybe there's an album coming, I don't know. Um, but there's other other other than that, like the Chanceford scene is the next closest, and only after about two or three years or so are you s starting to sort of scrape through the scene of how many other incredibly talented people are there, but just the infrastructure is not there. So while it's helped, I wish there were more areas like the country that functioned like London.

SPEAKER_16

Yeah, yeah, it is. It has a lot of positives, but there are there are some negatives to uh to London as well. Yeah. Um last year was a pretty good year for you as a as a musician, as an artist. Yeah. Tell me some of the highlights of 2025.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, some of the highlights involved um uh three singles uh coming out, one of which was supposed to be part of a of a commercial deal for uh for a for an airline that will not be named because they fell through on the project, sadly. But either way, the the song. Yeah, even even to get that c close and have people pay for that song to be made and recorded is an incredible honour in the first place. Um but also at the same time uh I got nominated for for four different awards from four different radio stations. I didn't win any of them, which is a shame, but it's good to it's something to build on. Yeah, it's good to be counted, genuinely. Like, and I'm I mean that in all seriousness, it's good to be counted and to meet new people at these events as well. Um I did my first ever headline show at folklore in Hoxton. I am also a repetitiveur for people, so I accompanied some incredible people. I uh uh was one of the first UK artists for the UK edition of Anti-Social Camp as well, and that's where I ended up working with BMG and accompanying Libby Whitehouse there for her performance there on the night as well. Um so a lot of the foundational work was done last year, and I'm really proud of that. And now in 2026 is the year that sort of uh I build on those foundations and release the sound that you are gonna be hearing later and the sound that you have just uh heard playing live in the studio.

SPEAKER_16

Yeah. And you were saying to me uh before we came on, Mr. Dummaris is not one of the things I'm not supposed to talk about. That's absolutely fine. So you're also a session musician for for other artists, one of which is gonna be on Saturday Night Live in a couple of weeks.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, so I ended up uh getting flown out to Berlin by BMG um to play for Meek um at the at Berlin Music House uh because she had just released her her mini EP and they wanted to do a big celebration, so we went through about six different radio stations on on a ther random Thursday in March and to then perform with her at a sold-out show at Berlin Music House was incredibly fun, but also incredibly daunting at the same time because I'd never done anything uh commercially as big, but it was really fun talking to all of Meek's management team and knowing that they all support a championships uh club that they each despise in their own right. It's the best league. Yeah, oh it's it's so fun. And so it was breakfast the next day after after we'd gone to bed at two o'clock that morning, very drunk and kebab in hand, uh, where we were sort of taking like uh like a walk of shame to to breakfast again, and me, the Norwich City supporter, um Meek's manager, a Southampton supporter, and the head of BMG UK being a whole city supporter, all sitting round breakfast, just being like, How why do you support this club? And then having which was really, really nice because then um they they were also like, We'd love to have you back and do some more stuff with us, which is brilliant, but also a weird bonding exercise at nine o'clock in the morning to talk about whole city and Ollie McBurney's transfer history.

SPEAKER_16

Football's quite a good topic to to draw people together. Um there are some people obviously that aren't interested in it, but a lot of people are, yeah. So you can always normally find some form of uh of uh common ground in there as well.

SPEAKER_14

Or uncommon ground, and then that brings you together because of of of the of the of the dyad working against each other. Yeah, definitely. Yeah.

SPEAKER_16

And you also do some work for Yamaha?

SPEAKER_14

I do, yes. I uh got I was lucky to be made the uh social media presenter for Yamaha Music London specifically in May of last year. And so that involves being in a load of their press packets, a load of their um their product videos, a load of their SEO videos, and I had the joy of not only starring in but producing and editing their Christmas campaign this year. And for that to be seen by between four to five million people on YouTube ads around the UK was incredible. But then I just constantly got photos from people being like, George, it's you in this Yamaha advert that has popped up. Um and then even this year to be like, oh yeah, I saw you in a Yamaha advert um when the ambassadors final uh was two years ago at Yamaha Music London. Gorgeous, uh gorgeous all night building. Um and to know people know me from Yamaha adverts and SEO adverts that I've done is terrifying, but also a weird sense of oh, this is what influencers must feel like. This is what they must feel like. Like it's very you are one of a kind. Oh, that's terrifying to be uh to be to be told that on air and be like, I do relate to that comment. Um because I've also worked with with Arn Heard as well, um uh doing a music marketing promo for them as well. Um and it's uh it's very weird when uh companies look at you and what you've brought to the table and like, yeah, we'll invest in that. Um and then when you turn up on set being like, is this good enough? And then being like, that's exactly what we wanted because it's just you. I'm like, wow, that's that's great for not only people accepting you as who you are for an artist, but also at the same time that they wanted that. Okay, fair enough. And you're paying me for that? Okay.

SPEAKER_16

I can totally see, but I mean obviously I've chatted to you and and met you a few times in person before, but I can totally see why somebody would pick you up as being social media influencer. You've got you've got a very out outgoing, infectious personality.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, I mean, sometimes to my detriment, because sometimes I chat for England, but also at the same time it's it's then good on radio shows like this. When when the host can just ask a question.

SPEAKER_16

I'll just let you go.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, and you just let me go. It's like a wind-up toy, really. I did a um I did uh recorded a podcast with uh with Jake Peach from from BBC from BBC Essex's his breakthrough podcast series as well. Um, and I don't think he ended up asking me more than about 15 questions in the hour that we recorded, because as soon as he sets me off, I'm like, okay, I've got so many random things to talk about. I'm like, this topic, this topic, this topic. And he's like, Well moving on because you covered everything. I think I was called by the uh the videographer videographer afterwards, he was like, George, you're a you're a podcast machine, and I'm like, Thank you. Yeah.

SPEAKER_16

I'd much rather interview people that have got a lot to say than somebody who gives me a one-word answer and I'm scrabbling around after five minutes to think of anything else to ask.

SPEAKER_14

Oh, and then you then you're having to like get blood out of a stone to be like, so you've got a new song coming up. Yeah.

SPEAKER_16

Yeah.

SPEAKER_14

So what is it about?

SPEAKER_13

It's about this. So are we gonna listen to it? Yeah, I guess we are. Yeah, I could be like that.

SPEAKER_16

You know it. Yeah. So just reflecting then on what we were just saying, those sort of opportunities you're getting and and the people that you've met, the contact lists that you're kind of building, all of this is gonna help you with your career going forward, isn't it?

SPEAKER_14

That's the hope. Um, I mean, there's um part of me, the very selfish part of me is like, well, I don't do this for nothing, but also at the same time, it's good to know so many people who could help you, and then also be nice to them on the way up, because one of my favourite sayings in the music industry is be nice to the people on the way up because you are going to meet them on the way down. Um, and so it's just so nice to for for an industry that is known for like being like very catty and backstabby at times, to meet people who also invest in you, you invest in them, you work with them on the way up, and now through talking to them, I've met my my publisher who I work with, now I've met my manager, I've met my producer who I've worked with since uh One Two Summer Fling was released almost two years ago now. And so those good working relationships have established themselves quite well, and I'm so happy that um people want to take a punt on me, and I'm very grateful that I then get to work with them on that project.

SPEAKER_16

Yeah, definitely. Right, we'll touch on your plans for for this year and and play the single in a minute, but you're gonna do another live song for us first. I am, yes. So, what's this next one?

SPEAKER_14

This is called Floating Away, and it was written uh by myself and my friend Naomi Cook, who's a very musical theatre writer. Um and uh I am a lot of this uh next collection of work is coming up from uh from a from a breakup that happened on a specific bench in Chelmsford in about February of four years ago. And it's very good songwriting material, Taylor Swift, thank you very much. Um and so this is called Floating Away from the experiences of you just feel like you're not as attached to them as you felt uh even a month ago, even a week ago, and it's the sort of small incremental things, and it's called floating away.

SPEAKER_09

I did not expect to hung you, my kids. I did not expect you to actually leave. This is just a joke, will I fall about it tomorrow? This is just a fight, no one will get past. That's just what you do when you want things to last, and when you go away, I know you'd expect me to follow But I feel as flow Blood I'm caught in the moment and oil is over the sobering moment that you walked away Baby with flood One hours away that we were missed. I guess that we just needed some time to rest, cause that's what worked before, and I guess this is one time to manage it on the car and just to fall away the law in the memory of you start now you're out of style and stylist flood baby with flood one for a moment you want to baby with a chip, what's up to the soul.

SPEAKER_16

Thank you. George Bone Floating Away. So um those two tracks that you've played live, they are both available for people to stream. No. No?

SPEAKER_14

Only um no, not yet. Only this only that one. Only uh only this track that's going to be played. Oh, only the next one. So I wanted to give like a little tease of what's coming out. So Floating Away and Note in a Bottle, which you heard earlier, are all going to be part of the collection of music that's coming out later this year. Um and I'm glad that I can formally uh announce that now. Um and yeah, so um they're gonna be uh on my uh debut EP coming out on September twenty fourth, with a headline show to celebrate it a paper dress vintage in Acne on the exact same day. So Note in the Bottle, which you heard first, is going to be the last single out from that release. And floating away, um the song that you just heard is going to be the uh the second lead single coming out on May 28th or 29th, whichever is a Friday.

SPEAKER_16

Okay. Check your diaries, I think. Check it Check your diaries, everyone. Okay, cool. Um I feel like I've heard that song before, and you probably played it when you played at the plow, didn't you?

SPEAKER_14

I did, yes. Um I or we were me and my producer Finn Connolly were halfway through producing that, so we didn't realise what the ultimate sound of it would be. But since then we've got an incredible live drummer um called Sam Portius to do all of the recordings. Yeah, he's um from Forever Forever, um, who uh is the drum Forever Ever Forever. Finn Connolly is also the frontman Forever Forever, and he produced my entire repeat coming out. Um and I uh have never had a saxophone in any of my music before. So we spent an entire day with the incredibly talented typical Soska.

SPEAKER_01

I love a saxophone.

SPEAKER_14

We all love a saxophone. Um when and also when we get the saxophone player to do a load of extended technique stuff as well, it's just like a load of lovely sound design that we add as like not necessarily sympathy pads in the background, but just like an extra layer, and you can hear the breath inside of it as well, and you can hear the atmosphere that's built just from just from the actual function of the of the of the brass itself. And they were so incredible to have recording a goldsmith that day in um in East London. Such a such an incredible process to record that through, but yes, you have you have absolutely heard that song before. TLDR, yes.

SPEAKER_16

Now I have to draw your attention to something that I was kind of slightly off topic, is that we were talking about somebody off air earlier on who did a um cover of one of your songs. Yes, and he is actually watching in the chat. So Ben Maholland, Maholland Jive, we played Jurassic Shark earlier. I presume he's still there, Ben. He says thanks for playing the track. And when I played that, George says that Ben did a cover of one of your tracks.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, he did. So um uh the wrong person, which uh you're gonna play in a few minutes, got made uh track of the week by BBC Introducing Essex and Games, which was very funny of them um when I told them not to uh tell anyone about the EP, and then Matt was like, This is part of an EP, and I'm like, Well, I guess I've got to announce it now.

SPEAKER_16

Um did you put it in big letters at the top of the code?

SPEAKER_14

I did actually put it in big letters at the top of the email. Um Matt, I love you, but that's on you. Um but yeah, so um uh Ben heard that from the from the from the recording. Um and bless him, the next day, the next day on the Friday, I see him doing a cover of it on the uh on the piano, and that's only like the second time that anyone has done a cover of any of my work, and it's just really fun, isn't it? I'm looking directly into the camera at the moment. It's just really fun when someone plays your music so much better than you.

SPEAKER_16

But no, um I know Ben would not agree with that because he doesn't, he's very self-deprecating.

SPEAKER_14

Oh contrario. Um Ben, wherever you are, thank you so much for doing that little cover. It was so massively appreciated. I don't think you have any idea. Um, and uh as a little thank you, I sent him the the full track before it was released just for him to have a listen to uh beforehand. Just because if you scratch my back, I'll just scratch scratch yours. Yeah, exactly. I if if you want to support me in in many different ways, then I will give you rewards for it.

SPEAKER_16

Yeah, yeah. Well I would love actually, and I don't know if Ben would be up for this because it might be a bit of pressure, but I'd love Ben for you to come in here and bring your um electric piano like uh George has done. Yes, and just play us a few piano covers of some of the songs that we've played on the show recently. I don't know, yeah, exactly. The invitation is there, Ben, if you're up for it. I don't uh if you don't want to do it because it's a lot pressure, then I understand. But that would be fun, and we could get you in and we can chat about Jurassic Shark and your other music. But then you can play some covers of some other people's songs while you're here.

SPEAKER_14

That'd be so cool. Ben, the corn that is going to throw down your move. But no, that genuinely that that would be fun, wouldn't it? Yeah, it would be so fun, and it made me so happy when I saw him tag me on um on Instagram with that story. So thank you very much, Ben. Thank you for the support.

SPEAKER_16

So the trap we're gonna play is uh called The Wrong Person. Yes. And there's a story to this in terms of how you finished recording it?

SPEAKER_14

Yeah, so um uh it was a song that was from that initial breakup that I had written in like a word vomit um section of my notes uh pad on my phone. But I actually finished it exactly a year later um at the British Museum. Sorry, not the British Museum, British Library. I get those two mixed up really regularly. Um I finished it at the British Library in the cafe area on the first floor a year later.

SPEAKER_16

What were you doing there?

SPEAKER_14

Well, getting uh getting a coffee, of course. But also I wanted to make sure that I was in a different environment than a studio environment because as you'll hear from the song, it's got a load of slot rhymes, it's got a load of um different ways of of of describing uh of things that I'm quite proud of in retrospect. And it's one of those that I didn't feel necessarily was quite like radio friendly and quite proud of at the time when I wrote it, but when I showed the demo of it to my producer, he was like, This is this has got to be the first song, this has got to be the first song in the year, and it's gotta be one of the lead singles. Um because he's got a brilliant earlier and can hear and hear how it's going. So um yeah, this was this was finished um in the in the British Library um with a a breakup that happened the year beforehand. Um and I wanted to talk in it about like how dare someone convey this brilliant, this inspirational, this unforgettable, um, and yet also at the same time how can someone leave that quickly without saying goodbye, really. It's the sort of contrast uh between the the negative that I love to play with in the song, and I hope you love it too by listening to it.

SPEAKER_16

Isn't it funny how Breakup is uh responsible for some of the best songs?

SPEAKER_14

They fuel a lot of really taking. Yeah, I mean, I one of my favourite sayings of all time um is by an Australian writer called Ben Crosshaw, and he used to do a load of video game reviews online, that's when he made his money to make his books. He said quite eloquently, Life is an exercise in duality, one can experience pain when there's been pleasure to put it into context. Um and I do feel like to have those high experiences, you've got to also have those low experiences to make you feel like the hives were worth it. Uh as we say here, looking at each other both being no supportive. Um but yeah, um, this is uh this is one of those songs that encapsulates that that saying by Ben Crosshaw.

SPEAKER_16

Can you write a song about the heartache of the Stanglian derby?

SPEAKER_14

Um I could. Um I mean this is I okay, as a shout out, I've always wanted to do two things get my music in a Sonic the Hedgehog game and have some of my music played out from Carrow Road. Um because those are two big things that I have wanted to do.

SPEAKER_16

You need to come up with a rousing pre-match anthem to get that idea.

SPEAKER_14

Honestly, I probably need to, one that is like good for walking out of the tunnel. Yes, uh, and that's gonna be my objective on whatever next catalogue of music is coming out there.

SPEAKER_16

But um Do you know oh you probably don't know this, but Ross, Stuart, we mentioned earlier on, he was lucky enough to be invited to play for a private event at Norwich. Oh stop it um late last year, and he played for all the the players at the training ground.

SPEAKER_14

Stop it. Why have I got to be more envious of Ross than I already?

SPEAKER_16

There's an opportunity for you next year, George. And when Ross went, we were in terrible form, and I did say to him, You you know, you probably your fault. You've you've you've jinxed you've jinxed everything turning up there.

SPEAKER_14

Was that during the Liam Manning era? Yes. Wow.

SPEAKER_16

It was a team building event that they were having. Oh, was it? It didn't really work. Um but Ross was great, and he had a photo with all the players and got to meet them all. I I was obviously I was like, oh my gosh. You were living vicariously. Why did you not invite me?

SPEAKER_14

That's so incredible. I need to send Ross a DM to be like, so who got you that? What's up with that?

SPEAKER_16

Yes, yeah, no, genuinely do.

SPEAKER_14

That's a really contact. That's a really good idea. He'll have a contact. Ross, if you're listening to this, be ready with a violent Instagram DM in about five minutes.

SPEAKER_16

Right, George, thank you for coming in. It's been a pleasure to chat to you. It's been an absolute pleasure. And a pleasure to listen to you uh play live as always. Um this is your new track then, which is out on Friday. Out on Friday, April 17th. I called the wrong person.

SPEAKER_09

From summer to sunset, from morning to bedside birth to time, our reason for I am It's wrong for a person to light up your life as bright as majorest, as long as they just might warm me around, still find ways to a stone. It's too too explained. Just what they say, the claim of poetics, speaks on its and plays games with my head. Oh, they're unexplainable. It's wrong for a person that could lie.

SPEAKER_17

You're listening to the new music generator with Tim Willet.

SPEAKER_09

Surrounded by the debris of everything falling away, a canvas of color, running the way down your face. I'm caught between the question After your body know. How do we stop it? My own to kill the doubt. Of course, but we got star. Well really wanna know it's a trip. You'll lie, you'll write the time, put the weight up, put that in the pin out of the break the way to die, put the wheel, put that in the pin out of the tiny Vessels.

SPEAKER_16

A communication, their last single, it's my ultimate favourite Tiny Vessels song, but that one is coming a close second the more I listen to it. Could overtake at some point. Now, Tiny Vessels are meant to be playing a headline show at the Portland Arms uh next weekend, but unfortunately I've had to postpone it until August. Details of that on their social media.

SPEAKER_18

Two weeks story. So think about my dislike I aspirin. But once you many years of banner me, I've got the sun success bestowed on me. I'll report two beats I could not weigh a bot on all the dogs holiday. If I'm a story, two weeks story, last month's flavor, then not a favor.

Louis Glassby and his new track called New Signing. Right, we've got 25 minutes left to go. We're gonna head back over to Suffolk now and play you a new track from the band Study of Us. This track they revisited after two years. The track is primarily built from sampling everyday objects from around the house. This is quite an interesting concept. The drums consist of an air fryer, dropping a vase in water, and an old COVID test box. The synths are made from a wine glass, and a bass is made from tying a bit of string to a door. Recently added guitars, vocals, and some supporting samples and released the track. Are you intrigued? I am not listening to this yet. This is called Throw Your Eyeline underscore Nova. All in lowercase. It's one of these tracks that has to be stylised in a particular way as you read it. Have a listen to this.
