Including the hit singles ‘Anyone For You’ and ‘Green Green Grass,’ Gold Rush Kid is available now via Columbia Records to stream, download and buy.

The album secured Ezra’s position as one of the most successful UK artists of the past decade. Hit single ‘Green Green Grass’ has spent 13 weeks in the UK Top 10, peaking at #3, and doesn’t show any signs of slowing down. Both singles from the album so far have topped the UK Airplay Chart and George is the only artist with 2 songs on the Top 10 most played at Radio 1 this year as well as being overall the most played artist across BBC stations.

After two blockbuster albums – Wanted On Voyage (2014) and Staying At Tamara’s (2018), both of which reached number 1 in the UK and went 4x platinum in the UK, with over 8 million album equivalent sales globally and 7 billion career streams - the 6x platinum UK number 1 single ‘Shotgun’; and the 2019 Brit Award for British Male Solo Artist, it was time to return to heart and hearth, with an album written and produced entirely in London with longstanding collaborator Joel Pott. The resulting record is some of Ezra’s most personal and reflective work to date. Take ‘I Went Hunting’ for example – described by The Sunday Times as “the best thing he has done,” or ‘Love Somebody Else’ – “because I’m giving up on myself” – praised by the Guardian for its emotional lyricism and “stately and cinematic” atmospherics in their Album of the Week review.
