To Love is To Lose

‘To Love is to Lose’ is  a heart-felt tribute to the life and times of Georgia Boston. The film features footage from India and Nepal in 2000, where Georgia unleashed her heart on about 400m new BFFs. Featuring antics from a typical Boston family Friday night session at Rancho Relaxo on the surf coast in Australia.  The love is palpable.

Recorded in North Melbourne by Juliette Meade and the Honey Meade band and mastered in Lisbon. Juliette’s stunning vocals and emotional range belies her age (13), there is truth and wisdom in the voice of youth, a raw connection to the aching pathos that transcends, no greater way to bring a story of such depth to life.  Not a dry eye in the house.

‘To Love is to Lose’ is a once in a blue moon collaboration of extraordinary individuals, inspired and led by the formidable Georgia Boston, no greater creator of exquisite fun.
Composed and performed by Juliette Meade (13), original material -  a searing young voice with a granular emotional range, the pure depth belies such a tender age -  breathing light into the darkness of our loss and anguish, like only a young woman could.
In part and in whole this project would not have been possible without the exquisite vision and creative mastermind of the fabulous Catherine Meade, lending her own magnificent voice  (chorus) and the Godfather the ubiquitous David O'Brien (bass, piano, cello, double-bass) including the talents of his band of brothers, storming Greg "8" Redford (drums and percussion), the mighty Les Gyroi (violin, viola) who walked into the studio and blew the roof off in one take, one string at a time; the charming and acousticly chisled Julian McKenzie (recording and sound engineering, Melbourne),  the exotic composer Andres Barros from Lisbon weaving some magic (sound engineering, Portugal);  the spiritually important life time collaborators, co-consipiritors and partners in fun times -  Sally Callan the voice (chorus), Patrick O'Kane the fat deep voice (chorus); and it goes without saying Georgia's baby boys Marcus Rice featuring front and centre with that big smile (chorus), Louis Rice the gorgeous face (featured), Georgia's husband celebrating the mo Cameron Rice (featured). Film maker extraordinaire Tom Broadhurst capturing the essence of all of the above genius with his usual casual aplomb and big spirited greatnessness and Tom Belcher and the Longwalk Film company.
