Career

Georgia Box debuted on stage in 2003 with a Royal Opera House London’s production of Leoš Janáček’s ‘The Cunning Little Vixen’. Her television debut came about in the same year, in ITV’s ‘The Pride of Britain Awards’. In the subsequent years, she appeared in productions of Bedřich Smetana’s ‘The Bartered Bride’ (2015) at the Royal Opera House London and the musical ‘Move It’ (2013) at London Olympia. She was also active as a solo performer, singing at various festivals and award ceremonies.

After she left school, Box decided to devote herself completely to pursuing a career in the music industry. Besides doing local gigs, she started to use social media to reach a wider audience. She recorded herself covering famous artists and uploaded them on her Facebook and YouTube accounts. In November 2014, she uploaded her cover of ‘Chandelier’ by Sia. This was her first video that went viral. Her popularity only increased after she posted the female response to Shaggy’s ‘It Wasn't Me’ in July 2017. The video has garnered over 30 million views on Facebook.

On August 5, 2016, she put out her debut EP, ‘Love Languages’. It contained five songs, ‘Someone You Love’, ‘Again’, ‘Love Languages’, ‘Yours’ and ‘Tonight’, and was well-received by the audience. She has since released three more singles, ‘Questions’ and ‘Rockstar’ in 2017 and ‘I Don’t Want You Anymore’ in 2018.

Since the release of her EP, several management companies and renowned songwriters have shown interest in working with her. She was courted by the creators of both ‘The Voice’ and ‘The X Factor’ for an appearance on the respective shows but she declined both offers, preferring to work her way to success in a more traditional route.
