Georgia Gets By accepts her queer identity on new track, "Oh Lana"

30 August 2023, 15:45 | Written by Tyler Damara Kelly

Georgia Gets By, the solo project of BROODS’ Georgia Nott, shares “Oh Lana" as the new single from her upcoming debut EP, Fish Bird Baby Boy.

“Oh Lana” is about the first crush Nott ever had on a girl, back in Catholic school. The track follows on from her debut solo single, "Happiness Is An 8 Ball", which was released earlier this year.

“"Oh Lana" is about my first queer crush. I was probably about eleven and I got into a fight with another kid to defend her honour,” Georgia explains. “I wasn’t sure how to fully express that back then, so this song has, in a way, been my love letter to that little gay version of me.”

“I’m always making music to combat, you know, life,” she says. “As I was writing these songs, I was opening old wounds.” At the time, she found herself living what she describes as “a nomadic life,” moving between Los Angeles, New York, New Zealand, and beyond as she worked out the songs that would define Georgia Gets By.

"Oh Lana" is out now. Fish Bird Baby Boy is due for release on 6 October via Luminelle Recordings.
