EP 142 - Georgia Weber
Australian-born, Brooklyn-based singer, songwriter, and upright bassist Georgia Weber joins host Ryan Roberts to discuss her upcoming EP Big In Japan — a collection of poignant, jazz-rooted songs inspired by Japanese traditions, art, and folklore. In this episode, Georgia shares how stories like Itaru Sasaki’s Wind Telephone and the Japanese art of Kintsugi shaped her approach to songwriting — weaving together themes of love, loss, renewal, and beauty in imperfection. The conversation explores her life as an expat musician, her creative process leading The Sleeved Hearts, and how cross-cultural inspiration can deepen artistic authenticity.
