Intros is a series hosted by the talented musician, Georgia Lines, who is on a mission to showcase and promote her favourite female and non-binary artists in the music industry.

This show features a relaxed sit-down kōrero with these artists, where Georgia explores their creative journey, the story behind their music, and the inspiration that led to the creation of their songs, alongside having important conversations around navigating the industry and tools they have learnt along the way. By focusing on female and non-binary artists, Intros is shining a light on voices that are often underrepresented in the mainstream music industry.

Georgia delves into the details of the creative process, discussing everything from songwriting techniques and instrumentation to the emotions and experiences that influenced the song’s composition.

After the interview, the artist takes to the stage to perform a live rendition of their song, allowing the audience to experience their talent firsthand.
