While there is no set time-line, george will come together to play and record again but for now other exciting projects are taking place.
Join up at the official george site - www.george.net.au - and you can find out what the band members have been and will be up to.
Katie
Katie released the fantastic album "Skin" in 2007, collaborating with amazing musicians from all around the world. The album featured the infectious single "Time To Begin", and was backed up by extensive touring throughout Australia.
Says Katie: "I even find myself dancing a little, which is something totally new for me!" laughs Noonan. "I've been on a really amazing journey since George (took a break), and now I'm running on all cylinders. It's been a long time from conception to birth - I had over 50 songs to choose from. This is the record I've been waiting to make."
She also toured with Josh Groban last year and will conduct an extensive national tour with the Australian Chamber Orchestra in Febnruary and March 2008. Katie is also thoroughly enjoying being a Mum to Dexter, Jonah and wife to Isaac.
