Georgia English and the Jukebox Kids

Based in Nashville, TN, Georgia English and the Jukebox Kids is a five-piece roots-soul group drawing on the traditions of Americana, Motown, Rock, and The Blues. Their debut album Good Girls, set to be released in early 2015, showcases eleven original songs that blend confessional vulnerability with a playful sense of humor.

The group consists of Georgia English on guitar and vocals, Torey Harding on guitar, Hayden Cotcher on drums, Christine Moad on bass, and Jon Upton on piano and organ. Having all met in a traditional Acoustic Blues group, the band members are linked by a deep respect for American Roots music.

English developed her voice and songwriting by busking in San Francisco subway stations as a teenager and learning from seasoned roots musicians. Monterrey County Weekly calls her "an invigorating blend of modern and retro." In 2013 she licensed her song Learn To Be My Fool to Ask Me Anything – a feature film starring Martin Sheen, Britt Robertson, and Justin Long. She received Berklee College of Music’s Songwriting Achievement Award in 2013, and the SESAC Award in 2014.

Georgia English and the Jukebox Kids bring authenticity and unforgiving energy to their shows. Their sets combine original material with arrangements of Bessie Smith, Jackie Wilson, The Band, and more. They play regularly in Nashville and are preparing for a tour in 2015 in support of their new album.
