Elements of folk, bluegrass, country and blues can be found in George Banda’s self-titled debut EP, which includes our featured track, “How Special You Are.” After working in Arizona mines, George needed a change and moved to Charlotte to study theology and music. He can often be seen around town riding his yellow Harley-Davidson (nicknamed Pikachu) to shows or to teach music, a guitar strapped to his back. The classically trained musician wrote all six songs on his EP. It was released by North Carolina-based Croquet Records, an independent, nonprofit label and songwriter incubator focused on new and emerging artists in the state.
