Georgia White

Georgia White was a popular American blues singer and pianist who rose to prominence during the 1930s and early 1940s. Known for her expressive voice and sly, often humorous lyrics, she recorded over 100 tracks between 1930 and 1941, making her one of the more prolific female blues performers of her time. Many of her songs featured risqué themes and double entendres, a hallmark of the classic female blues tradition.

White often worked with top musicians of the era, including pianist Richard M. Jones and guitarist Lonnie Johnson. One of her most recognized songs is “You Done Lost Your Good Thing Now.” Though less is known about her personal life, Georgia White’s recordings have earned her a lasting place in the pre-war blues canon, and her music continues to be celebrated by blues enthusiasts and collectors today.
