Multi award-winning /nominated vocalist, lyricist and producer, Georgia Mancio, is one of Europe’s most respected, adventurous and multi-faceted new artists. Her multi-lingual music references classic jazz and Latin alongside her own astonishing writing, always stamped with an unfailing emotional integrity.
In March 2021, Georgia releases her 8th album – ‘Quiet Is The Star’, the second in partnership with Grammy-winning pianist/composer Alan Broadbent. Their first album, ‘Songbook’ (2017), was launched at a sold out headline show at Ronnie Scott’s (“unequivocally, one of the gigs of the year” Jazzwise) with subsequent performances across Europe and the US, including famed New York clubs Dizzy’s (Jazz at Lincoln Center), Kitano and Mezzrow.
The strengthening bond between these performers and songwriters is sealed by the concurrent publication of their first book – ‘The Songs of Alan Broadbent and Georgia Mancio,’ featuring all their 33 originals, co-written between 2014 and 2020.
Georgia’s previous release, ‘Finding Home’ (2019), was co-produced with pianist/composer Kate Williams and her acclaimed Four Plus Three ensemble with special guest classical guitarist John Williams. Critically lauded it won Best Album in 2020 Parliamentary Jazz Awards.

She presented over 160 artists across 5 multi-venue editions including: Rebecca Parris, Tuck & Patti, Raul Midon, Gregory Porter (his first UK booking), Beady Belle, Carleen Anderson, Carmen Souza, Karin Krog and Diana Torto/Kenny Wheeler/John Taylor and performed 44 sets herself.
