We are a songwriting and music production duo with a strong inclination toward gentle sounds and kind words.  We like to weave meaningful songs spun with love and care from stories and real life.
The Powdered Earth are Gloucester, UK based writer/producer duo George Moorey and Shane Young.

George's past work focuses on collaborations and community music projects. His portfolio includes several albums, national lottery funded projects, library music, recordings of local artists and music production for an online recording service. In 2018 he created the SPACES project with funding from Arts Council England.

As a drummer, Shane has made records with Ray Shulman, Nick Lowe, Stephen Street and Ian Broudie, as well as playing on albums by The Christians and Mansun and touring with the likes of Jools Holland, Squeeze and Del Amitri. Having toured the UK, France and the US, these days he’s staying relatively still, teaching drums and photography, and writing his third novel. Most recently this collaboration with George Moorey on The Powdered Earth project has allowed him to step out of his comfort zone, debuting as a singer and lyricist.
