Georgia Chanel - SEKHMET (Single)
Rising songstress Georgia Chanel makes her highly-anticipated return, as she unveils her empowering and alluring new single ‘SEKHMET’ this May.
Making waves within the music scene, Midlands-raised, London-based Georgia Chanel has become a rising talent of note since making her debut in 2021, crafting a repertoire of genre-bending and multi-dimensional sounds, whilst nurturing this into her own style and identity. Georgia’s releases derive not only from her love for music but life experiences that have played a huge part in her new direction in her musical career.
After grasping the attention of listeners with an array of elevating and atmospheric releases over the last few years, Georgia Chanel prepares to enter a new era in her music career with renewed energy across her latest single ‘SEKHMET’ - a reference to the ancient Egyptian goddess of war and healing – offering powerful messages of resilience and simply having to walk away from a relationship to heal.
Opening with Georgia’s elegant and sophisticated soul-tinged vocals, ‘SEKHMET’ is a flawless and elevating affair. The vocals dominate the track whilst the heartfelt message behind this single takes her blossoming discography to the next level and effortlessly sets the tone of reflection, empowerment and growth after the tribulations of a relationship. It’s an undeniably alluring track which marks a new and exciting chapter in Georgia’s career and is destined to resonate with many listeners across different genres, whilst incorporating R&B, soul, pop and dance influences.
“SEKHMET was inspired by a particular situation I was going through, I felt like I didn’t have a voice and was silenced, so this song was warranted in many ways. The track will resonate with many listeners, focusing on being in a relationship with someone (platonic or romantic) and the power balance being completely off, therefore being left with no choice but to walk away. I knew I wanted something to metaphor the absolute anger I felt that I had been treated this way and I recently had become super interested in ancient Egypt. I thought, why not use the ancient Egyptian goddess Sekhmet. She fascinated me, as she was the goddess of war and healing which is a complete juxtaposition. It truly felt like this situation had resulted in war when it should have gone the other way.” - Georgia Chanel
