THE STORY SO FAR...

A tastemaker and new music champion, she regularly contributes her warmth, knowledge and personality to BBC 6 Music, BBC Radio 2, Apple Music's Beats 1, Soho Radio and Monocle 24.
BBC 6 Music has been her spiritual home for the past 10 years where she works as a broadcast journalist after being scouted on the red carpet at the NME Awards. She continues to indulge her boundless enthusiasm for music, musicians, culture, art and fashion within a national news team who both value her work and respect her attitude towards it.

She's had the pleasure of time with many of her heroes Led Zeppelin, Mick Fleetwood, Sir Paul McCartney, Cat Power, James Murphy and even Ryan Gosling!
Following an English and Drama Degree and early work at XFM and BBC 6 Music Georgie started honing her skills as a broadcaster presenting for Jersey's Channel 103, Diesel U Music, Strongroom Alive, Brighton Festival Radio and Amazing Radio, with her national DAB Amazing Breakfast being featured in The Guardian by Elisabeth Mahoney and again by Miranda Sawyer, as well as Cooler Magazine.
