Stuff that people have said:
"Georgia Fields is a phenomenally accomplished young artist ... While many of her contemporaries share a similarity of delivery, GF is unique and timeless with her style reminiscent of the finest of 60s and 70s female songwriters. Get on the bandwagon now!"
- Billy Baxter (ABC Radio 774)
"... An effortless melodic songwriter with an excellent sense of lyrical emotion and wit... Imagine Feist and Crowded House making a record with Phil Spector in a toy shop."
- Greg Arnold ('Things of Stone and Wood')
"This EP comes packaged in a cut-to-size Little Golden Books cover, which impresses this scribe to no end ... The title track is a percussive number with splashes of organ and the assured vox of Fields... Breezily effortless."
- Adrian May (“Singled Out†review column, Inpress Magazine)
