fiveoclockcharlie is the very embodiment of Georgia Long.
I’ve been performing since I was seven, experimenting with multiple
genres. Being from Lubbock, Texas, country music was “the thing.”
That progressed into rock, then jazz/R&B, and has evolved into
electro-pop. Starting, I was in a band with my sisters —
Lindsay and Stephanie. We would sing to karaoke tracks, wherever
anyone would have us; sometimes that included being on a trailer
singing to only a man and his dog.
After a few years, The Long Girlz formed a rock band called The
Shock, mostly playing in seedy bars around the Lubbock area.
That’s when I started writing my music. The first song I wrote is
called “There” and it’s actually on my EP — The Angel.
After venturing off on my own, to Charleston, New York, LA, back
to Lubbock, then finally back to LA, I’ve settled out here and am
creating as fiveoclockcharlie.
It’s not been the smoothest of roads. While I was living in New York, my sister Lindsay and brother-in-law, Will Boreing, were in LA. They convinced me to move out here — under the pretense that it would be temporary. It didn’t take long for me to realize that this is where I was meant to be. About a month in, Will allowed me to record my first album with him and Steven Solomon. Just as I was set to release it, my mom, unfortunately, passed away, which took Lindsay, Will, and myself back to Texas to be with the family. While in Lubbock, I co-wrote and illustrated a children’s book in my mom’s honor, and wrote my next album.
Now that I’m finally back in LA, I feel more focused and serious about my art. I’ve released my first album, and am planning on releasing its follow-up in 2020, so things are (currently) looking up!
Previously of the bands The Long Girlz, The Shock, and The Alchemists, Georgia is finally stepping out onto the music scene as a solo artist and putting out the music previously kept only for herself. By constantly performing professionally and moving back and forth between TX, LA, and NY; Georgia has assumed a balance between hustle and art usually only known by the taste makers at the very top.
She thrives in the public eye and has a flare for all things fantastic; proven by the success she's achieved with her many creative endeavors, including comic illustration and mixology. If art represents the artists emotion, mood, and ideology, it's clear what is on Georgia's mind... the party.
With her electro pop brainchild fiveoclockcharlie, she has finally struck pay dirt with producers and co writers Steven Solomon and William Boreing. As you read this, the first string of singles under fiveoclockcharlie are being released to very good reviews from labels, PR firms, and YouTube reviewers.
Georgia is a party so fiveoclockcharlie is a party.
Drive to it, dance to it, or drink to it- but listen, because it’s incoming,
and its five o’clock is here.
