MP3 Hugger
"The guitar picking and sweet melody is more than enough to get you to fall in love with singer-songwriter, Ali George."
Rock the Pigeon
"His guitar playing is delicate and picturesque, his lyricism poignant and gripping, and his command for songwriting obvious."

“This UK artist in some ways reminds me of old school Cat Stevens (Yusuf Islam),
and that is a great thing!”

Bio
British singer-songwriter Ali George is known for his intricate fingerstyle guitar technique, his mellow, understated vocals, and his subtle, earthy songwriting. Of a multitude of potent influences, two defining acts inspire his music most profoundly: Bon Iver and John Martyn. George has been on the folk scene in the south-west of England for twenty years. He has released six albums (which have been added to the British National Library’s Permanent Collection). He has supported revered folk acts such as Martin Simpson, Steve Tilson, Nick Harper, and Rory McLeod. His latest album Platys Yialos is a departure from his Folk roots. Wait for the Mist to Clear - the first single from the album - was hailed as an “absolute gem” by BBC Music Introducing DJ Sarah Gosling.

Recent Single: "Little Prophecy"

"This is a voice that you could listen to for hours. 'Little Prophecy' is the epitome of a perfectly written song. We absolutely have to draw attention to the precision playing on the acoustic guitar. It just flows out of Ali as if he was born playing. The fills are just spectacular. They’re very reminiscent of Mark Knopfler’s style of acoustic playing. Ali George is a true talent."
