Overview
George Mann (US) is a songwriter's singer who would just as soon share stories and songs from the long history of folk music as sing his own songs! George has produced albums featuring such folk music legends as Utah Phillips, Pete Seeger and Tom Paxton, and produced national tours of the US and Australia in honor of the Almanac Singers (2013) and Joe Hill (2015). George released his newest CD “This Chain” in October 2023 and toured folk clubs and festivals in Australia. He is producing a CD for release in August 2024 with Si Kahn to honor Si on his 80th birthday.

Reviews
"George is one Mann on a mission—to remind his listeners of the rich vein of human solidarity that runs through our musical songbook, and to which he belongs. We can never be reminded of that too often."
"The sound is classic Americana, tinged with country rock, splashes of doo-wop and 60s folk in the best traditions of George’s heroes Tom Paxton and Pete Seeger. George’s gentle, tuneful voice belies the often-uncompromising messages in many of the songs, making A World Like This a rare example of a political album that also contains a lot of great tunes."
