George told BBC News that writing about his experiences allows him to use music as 'therapy'.

A 23-year-old musician from Donegal says it is "hard to believe" he will be supporting music legend Paul Weller on tour.

When, in 2023, George released his third album 'Vehicular Suicide', he was "shocked" and "excited" to see the attention the record garnered online. "I've never had such a high as recording my own songs. I knew then that this is what I was going to do for the rest of my life, that as soon as I left school I was gong to record something, and that I was going to give it everything."George performing on stage

"Unfortunately, so much pop that’s getting played is a little cookie-cutter and radio friendly. The intention shouldn’t be to get on the radio - it should be to be good. "I’m saying what I’m feeling, and it helps me connect to the music a lot more. It’s a way for me to use music as therapy.""I always think ‘this is a really niche concept, nobody is going to get this’. But we’re not as original as we think we are.
