AKA George - Blazing
AKA George is a Jagger-esque showman who has has been hailed as a ‘genius’ by Pharrell Williams and has set alight Youtube clocking up over 30 million views and counting.
His new single ‘Blazing’ sets the bar high: sn intoxicating youth rallying rave to continue standing up and fighting and letting go to moments of joy.
“Blazing is about having belief in yourself despite all the shit that life throws at you.” Says George. “The idea for it came about in the middle of a huge festival I was playing in Spain. It was rammed - there were about twenty thousand people in this huge town square. Most of them had never heard of me before and they probably all had their own life problems and issues, but for that one small moment in time it was all forgotten. I looked out from the stage and just saw a sea of arms. We were on fire that night. I just thought, “These people are amazing, I feel amazing". I went back to the hotel room and wrote 'Blazing'.”
