Quotes

His use of language unifies people from many cultures. He is certainly a unique and cherished member of the global entertainment community. Not just a musician but a performance artist.

Stuart Whitney

George works continuously to perfect the art using his abundant capacities to help bring people together in a merry way He combines his creative songwriting, his animated energy, his vibrant, heart-touching voice, and his love of everyone to connect with the audience and to connect the audience members with each other. He presents songs sung warmly and fluently in many languages from many cultures to highlight the beauty of human diversity, and in doing so, subtly hints at the potential for us all to be a part of human unity – and all while we are having an engaging and delightful time. If George is performing near you, don’t miss the opportunity for you and your family to experience this excellent adventure.
