Early life
Upbringing in Sydney
Georgia Magree, known professionally as GG Magree, was born on January 25, 1989, in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.[8] She grew up in a family deeply embedded in Sydney's vibrant nightlife and hospitality scene, with her father, Greg Magree, a prominent property developer and owner of several popular pubs and nightclubs, including The Piano Room, Santa Barbara, and The Norfolk.[9][10] This environment exposed her to music and entertainment from a young age, particularly during her university years.[11][12] Magree's early years in Sydney were shaped by the city's dynamic urban culture and her family's business, which often involved high-profile social circles in areas like Kings Cross.[13] As of 2025, she is 36 years old.[8] As a young adult, Magree relocated to Los Angeles, California, around 2018, where she has since established her primary residence and pursued her career.[14][15]Initial foray into music
Growing up in Sydney, Georgia Magree developed an early interest in electronic music during her teenage years, largely influenced by her father's ownership of several nightclubs, including Stonewall, one of Australia's historic gay clubs, where she was frequently exposed to vibrant dancefloors and performances.[16][12] This environment sparked her passion for the genre, leading her to experiment with music curation at university parties hosted in her father's venues.[11] Magree taught herself DJing and basic production skills using rudimentary equipment, drawing from online tutorials and trial-and-error sessions inspired by the electronic sounds she encountered in Sydney's club scene.[17][18] As she recounted, "I really got into DJing when I was in university, I threw raves and then... I taught myself how to DJ."[18] Her self-directed learning focused on blending hip-hop and electronic elements, honing her sets through private practice before venturing into live settings. By around 2010–2011, Magree began performing at local Sydney events, starting with small gigs such as a paid slot at a neighborhood pub for $25 per hour, which marked her initial entry into the local DJ circuit.[17] These early appearances at university raves and intimate club nights allowed her to build confidence and a modest following within Sydney's underground electronic community.[1] It was during this period that she adopted the stage name GG Magree, a shortened version derived from her full name, Georgia Magree, to create a bold, memorable persona for her performances.[1]Career
2012–2016: Early releases and DJ beginnings
GG Magree entered the professional music scene in 2012 as a self-taught DJ, drawing from skills honed during her upbringing in Sydney to perform initial sets at local clubs. Inspired by artists like Skrillex and Zeds Dead, she aimed to create immersive experiences through her music, blending high-energy performances with a focus on evoking strong emotions in audiences. By 2013, she was actively gigging at venues such as Chinese Laundry in Sydney, establishing a reputation for dynamic sets that transitioned from R&B to headbanging bass elements.[19][20][21] Throughout 2014 and 2015, Magree built her foundational presence in the EDM scene by sharing unsigned trap and bass productions on platforms like SoundCloud, while continuing to refine her DJ style through consistent club residencies in Sydney. Her early work emphasized maximalist bass-heavy sounds tailored for dancefloors, reflecting her growing expertise in electronic genres without formal label support at the time. This period marked her transition from local performer to emerging talent, as she experimented with original tracks and remixes to cultivate a dedicated following in Australia's underground electronic community.[22][19] In 2016, Magree achieved her first major label signing with Deadbeats, Zeds Dead's imprint, leading to the release of her breakthrough collaboration "Frontlines" with Zeds Dead and NGHTMRE on September 17. The track, a high-impact trap-bass production featuring her vocals, quickly garnered over 170,000 plays on SoundCloud within days, solidifying her entry into the broader EDM landscape. Complementing this milestone, she undertook small tours, including a 10-week stint in the UK, to expand her live presence and connect with international audiences.[23][21][24]2017–2021: Breakthrough in electronic music
In 2017, GG Magree marked her breakthrough as a solo artist in the electronic music scene with the release of her debut single "One By One" on Zeds Dead's Deadbeats label.[25] This high-energy dubstep track, featuring her signature bold vocals and aggressive bass drops, introduced her unique rock-infused electronic style to a wider audience and solidified her signing to Deadbeats as a pivotal step in her career trajectory.[25] The single's success helped establish Magree's presence in the bass music community, building on her earlier vocal features and DJ sets. Building momentum, Magree released "Bodies" in 2018, a trap-influenced single co-released on Deadbeats and Lowly Palace.[26] The track's catchy hooks and dynamic production showcased her versatility, garnering attention for its anthemic quality and leading to a series of official remixes that extended its reach across electronic playlists and festivals.[27] That same year, her growing profile led to further opportunities, including a bass-heavy remix of Big Wild's "Heaven" for the Superdream (Remixes) EP on Counter Records in 2019, where she infused the original indie-electronic track with heavy drops and her vocal flair.[28] The period's peak came in 2020 with the collaboration "Save My Grave" alongside Zeds Dead and DNMO, released on Deadbeats as part of the We Are Deadbeats (Vol. 4) compilation.[29] This brooding bass track highlighted Magree's emotive songwriting and deepened her ties within the label's roster, contributing to her rising industry stature. However, early 2020 brought a personal setback when Magree contracted COVID-19 in Australia—one of the country's first 300 cases—after returning from a UK tour, forcing her to quarantine and halting live performances with Zeds Dead amid border closures.[30] Despite the disruption, Magree channeled the quarantine period into heightened creativity, focusing on studio production and releasing singles like "Nervous Habits" (featuring Joey Fleming) and "Flatline" (with Sullivan King and Kai Wachi), which reflected her adaptive resilience during the global pandemic.[30] These efforts not only maintained her momentum but also underscored her growth within electronic music, as she worked toward a debut album amid industry-wide shifts toward virtual events and remote collaboration.[30]2022–present: Genre shift to pop-punk and debut album
In 2022, GG Magree marked a significant evolution in her artistry with the release of her debut EP Dichotomy on May 19 via Monstercat's Uncaged imprint, incorporating pop-punk and rock elements into her established electronic production style.[31][32] The seven-track project, featuring collaborations like "Bitch" with Royal & the Serpent, explored themes of inner conflict and raw emotion through aggressive guitars and melodic bass drops, signaling her departure from pure electronic sounds.[33] This shift contrasted her prior breakthrough in electronic music, where she had built a following with high-energy bass anthems.[34] Preceding the EP, Magree released the single "Already Dead" on April 21, 2022, which debuted as Monstercat's first rock-leaning track and became a cornerstone of Dichotomy.[35] The song's brooding lyrics and punk-infused energy, paired with a video starring Alexandra Shipp, underscored her growing interest in hybrid genres.[36] Earlier that year, her 2021 single "Tear You Apart," featuring Aaron Gillespie and released October 22 via Dim Mak Records, had already hinted at this transition with its electronic rock fusion, blending her vocal prowess with heavier instrumentation.[37][38] Building on this momentum, Magree signed with Rise Records in mid-2025, a move that amplified her pivot toward rock-bass hybrids as both vocalist and producer.[39] In announcements and features around the signing, she highlighted the label's support for her punk-electronic blend, describing it as a platform to channel personal resilience into anthemic tracks.[40] This period saw the rollout of singles leading to her full-length debut: "Run" on August 12, a guitar-driven confession of defiance; "Wet Dreams" on September 16, with its high-voltage rave visuals; and "Bleed" in June, evolving into a thematic anchor for the album's exploration of desire and turmoil.[41][42][43] Magree's debut album Spit Love arrived on October 22, 2025, via Rise Records/BMG, comprising 12 tracks that fully realized her rock-bass fusion over 35 minutes.[6] Produced primarily by Magree with contributions from Duncan Murray, the record delves into themes of self-love and intensity, earning praise for its cohesive blend of punk attitude and electronic edges in reviews from outlets like Kerrang! and Music Connection.[2][44] As of late 2025, she continues to perform and produce in this vein, positioning herself as a key figure in the evolving rock-electronic landscape.[5]Musical style and influences
Evolution of sound
GG Magree's musical journey began in the early 2010s within the electronic dance music (EDM) scene, where she established herself as a DJ specializing in trap and bass genres. From 2012 to 2016, her sets in Sydney clubs and international venues emphasized heavy, bass-driven tracks blended with R&B and trap elements, drawing influences from artists like RL Grime and NGHTMRE.[21][45] During this period, she relied primarily on DJ decks and production software to craft high-energy performances that captivated underground audiences.[46] Between 2017 and 2021, Magree's sound evolved to incorporate more vocal elements, transitioning from instrumental-focused DJing to featuring her own singing in electronic tracks. This mid-period marked her vocal debut on the 2016 single "Frontlines" with Zeds Dead and NGHTMRE, which amassed millions of streams and highlighted her raspy, emotive delivery over midtempo bass lines.[19][46] By 2020, releases like "Nervous Habits" with Joey Fleming fused alt-rock sensibilities with bass production, introducing subtle genre-blending that foreshadowed her later shifts while maintaining electronic foundations.[47] The pivotal genre shift occurred in 2022 with her debut EP Dichotomy, where Magree integrated punk guitars and raw, vulnerable vocals into her bass-heavy electronic style, creating a hybrid of pop-punk and industrial rock. Inspired by learning guitar during the COVID-19 pandemic, tracks like "Deja Reve" and "Already Dead" combined thrashing riffs with bass drops, exploring themes of emotional duality, rebellion, and personal authenticity.[34][48] This evolution emphasized vulnerability through lyrics that confronted inner conflicts, as seen in "Run," described as a defiant battle cry against self-doubt.[49] By incorporating live band elements alongside her production software and decks, Magree's sound became more chaotic and unapologetic, reflecting influences from rave and punk-electro scenes.[40] This progression culminated in her 2025 debut album Spit Love, which amplified the industrial rock edge with synth-pop and electronic rock, delving deeper into themes of empowerment, sex-positivity, and queer rebellion through songs like "Bleed" and "Wet Dreams."[50][16]Key collaborations and influences
GG Magree's artistic development has been profoundly influenced by the vibrant Australian electronic music scene, where she honed her skills as a DJ and producer in Sydney before relocating to [Los Angeles](/page/Los Angeles). This foundation exposed her to bass-heavy genres and innovative sound design, shaping her early fusion of electronic elements with vocal-driven tracks. Additionally, her work reflects inspirations from punk icons, evident in the raw energy and rebellious themes that echo artists like Avril Lavigne, blending gritty lyrics with high-energy production.[48][51] Prominent EDM producers such as Zeds Dead have also played a pivotal role in her influences, particularly through their collaborative impact on her transition from visual artist to vocalist. Magree's breakthrough collaboration came with Zeds Dead and NGHTMRE on the 2016 track "Frontlines," which garnered over 31 million Spotify streams and significantly boosted her visibility in the bass music community, leading to tours and further opportunities.[52][30] Key partnerships continued to define her trajectory, including "Ghost" with Jauz in 2017, which highlighted her ability to merge trap-infused beats with emotive vocals, expanding her reach within the electronic festival circuit. In 2018, she teamed up with Borgore and Axel Boy for "Reasons," a dubstep-leaning release on Buygore Records that underscored her adaptability in aggressive bass genres. Her collaboration with Seven Lions on "Falling Fast" in 2022 further demonstrated her evolving style, incorporating melodic dubstep elements that bridged her electronic roots with more introspective themes. These features not only amplified her exposure but also allowed her to experiment with diverse production techniques from industry leaders.[53][54][55] In recent years, Magree's influences have shifted toward the pop-punk revival, informing the production of her 2025 debut album Spit Love on Rise Records/BMG, where she integrates electro-punk aesthetics with themes of queer identity and emotional vulnerability. This evolution draws from contemporary punk movements, channeling high-octane riffs and anthemic choruses while retaining electronic undercurrents from her EDM background, resulting in a genre-blending sound that has been praised for its raw intensity.[56][57]Touring and performances
Festival appearances
GG Magree's festival appearances have been a cornerstone of her rise in the electronic and bass music scenes, showcasing her high-energy performances at major international events. Following her breakthrough in 2016, she embarked on extensive tours across Australia, the United States, and Europe, building a global fanbase through consistent live shows in EDM and bass circuits.[58][4] Between 2017 and 2021, Magree delivered headline sets at prominent venues and festivals within the EDM and bass genres, often selling out performances that highlighted her vocal prowess and dynamic stage presence. Notable examples include her full set at Electric Daisy Carnival (EDC) Las Vegas in 2021 on the Cosmic Meadow stage, where she blended trap and bass elements to captivate large crowds. These headline appearances, coupled with sold-out club and festival shows across North America and Australia, solidified her reputation in the bass music community.[46][59][60] Magree made significant marks at flagship festivals, including her debut at Lollapalooza in 2019, where she performed on August 4 at the Perry's Stage in Chicago, delivering a set infused with her signature electronic sound. She returned to major stages with a standout appearance at Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in 2022, playing the Sahara Tent during Weekend 1 on April 15 and Weekend 2 on April 22, marking a pivotal moment in her career with high-production visuals and crowd interaction. Additionally, she has performed multiple times at Ultra Music Festival in Miami, including sets in 2022 and 2023 on the Worldwide Stage, contributing to the event's sold-out editions and drawing from her growing catalog of bass-heavy tracks.[61][62][63] In 2025, amid her genre shift toward pop-punk, Magree launched the Spit Love Tour to promote her debut album of the same name, featuring rock-leaning live sets that incorporate live instrumentation and her full band for an immersive experience. The tour includes dates across the US, such as September 27 in San Diego at Techno Rebels, October 3 in Seattle at Hangar 30, October 17 in San Francisco, October 30 at House of Yes in Brooklyn, and July 25 in Raleigh at The Underground, emphasizing her evolution with heavier, guitar-driven performances.[64][65][2]Challenges and adaptations
In early 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic severely disrupted the global music industry, leading to widespread cancellations and postponements of live tours and festivals, which halted GG Magree's in-person performances during a pivotal period in her rising career.[66] To adapt, Magree pivoted to virtual formats, delivering high-energy sets for events like Insomniac's Middlelands Virtual Rave-A-Thon in April 2020 and Digital Mirage in June 2020, where she maintained audience engagement through themed visuals and extended mixes streamed online.[67][68] She continued this approach with appearances at the Nocturnal Wonderland Virtual Rave-A-Thon in September 2020, showcasing her bass-heavy electronic sound to fans unable to attend physical venues.[69] As restrictions eased, Magree made a strong recovery in 2022, returning to major live festivals such as Coachella's Sahara Stage, Ultra Music Festival, and Tomorrowland, where her performances marked a triumphant resumption of in-person touring.[70][71][72] Following her genre shift toward pop-punk influences starting in 2022, Magree adapted her live shows to incorporate live band elements, blending electronic production with raw vocals and guitar-driven arrangements to deliver a more dynamic, rock-infused stage presence at subsequent events.[34][73] This evolution allowed her to translate the emotive, narrative-driven tracks from her debut EP Dichotomy into immersive concerts, enhancing audience connection beyond traditional DJ sets.[46]Discography
Albums
GG Magree's debut studio album, Spit Love, was released on October 22, 2025, through Rise Records in partnership with BMG.[5] The 12-track project marks her transition from electronic music roots to a hybrid of industrial rock, synth-pop, and electro-punk, produced by Duncan Murray.[44] Building on themes introduced in her preceding 2022 EP Dichotomy, the album explores feral love and rebellion through raw, unapologetic narratives of desire, power dynamics, and defiance against societal constraints.[5] The tracklist opens with the defiant "Sex," setting a tone of emotional vulnerability amid control, followed by "Bleed" and the title track "Spit Love," which evoke BDSM-inspired intensity and self-assured dominance. Mid-album highlights include "Siren," a sugary EDM-infused anthem of seduction, and "2 Hot 2 Handle" featuring Silly Goose, blending nu-metal riffs with playful aggression. Later tracks like "Wet Dreams" pulse with dungeon-like energy, while the closer "Nightmares" shifts to an emotive ballad reflecting on pain and rebirth. The full tracklist is as follows:- Sex
