Born on June 7, 1993, and the son of an art teacher, Ezra grew up in Hertford, attending Bengeo primary school and then Simon Balle Secondary School, before moving to Bristol, England, in 2011 to pursue a music degree at the influential music school “BIMM.” His younger brother Ethan Barnett is also a musician and goes by the name Ten Tonnes.
Ezra's music is described as deep, bluesy and mournful - particularly in tracks such as "Budapest" - and is peppered with influences from the likes of Bob Dylan and Woody Guthrie. Richard Pitt from BBC Bristol aptly described Ezra as "a young man with the voice of a 50 year old”.

Over the Creek
by George Ezra
I may love you in the morning
Like today, you'll never know
Step this way, I'd find a garden
Like today, you'll never know
You may claim that you found me
Like today, you'll never know
Like today, you'll never know
Oh none the less,
I must confess,
That I'm the mess
That has been left to safe you
Your situation must be Dire
You're situation must be over the creek
Haunted we speak
Over the creek
Haunted we speak
I Can’t have left you
Still haven't met you
I may fall into your dance
Like today, I'd never know
We may meet with awkward hearts
Like today, I'll never know
Like today, I'll never know
Oh none the less,
I must confess,
That I'm the mess
That has been left
Oh none the less,
I must confess,
I'm the mess
That has been left to safe you
My situation must be dire
My situation must be over the creek
Haunted we speak
Over the creek
Haunted we speak
I Can’t have left you
Still haven't met you
And if I never said enough
With my last spoken words
And if I ever said to much
Be my last spoken words
Be my last spoken words
Oh none the less,
I must confess,
That I'm the mess
That has been left
Oh none the less,
I must confess,
I'm the mess
That has been left to save you
Our situations must be dire
Our situations must be over the creek
Haunted we speak
I Can’t have left you
Still haven't met you
