Baritone guitarist!
George Ezra, an English singer-songwriter, attended BIMM (the music college where I used to teach) in 2011 to study songwriting.
After completing his course, he quickly signed with Columbia Records and released his debut album in 2014.
Before the album’s release, he dropped two singles. The second single, Budapest, achieved great success, propelling the album to debut at #3 on the U.K. charts.
In total, six singles were released from his debut album, Wanted On Voyage, with Blame It On Me also performing well.
By 2018, Ezra was already a well-known name with regular radio airplay. Two singles preceded his next album, with Paradise reaching #1 in Scotland and achieving moderate success.
However, it was the third single that truly made an impact. Shotgun became Ezra’s signature song, potentially securing him a performance slot at Glastonbury’s Pyramid Stage in 2019. His album, Staying at Tamara’s, went on to become the best-selling U.K. album of 2018.
The subsequent single, Hold My Girl, also achieved success, spending 26 weeks on the charts.
In 2022, Ezra released his third album, Gold Rush Kid. The single Green Green Grass became his seventh top-ten hit in the U.K.
Looking at his Spotify numbers, Budapest still holds the highest streaming figures, closely followed by Shotgun.
