Early life
Call Me Loop was born as Georgia Buchanan[1] on 23 December 1990.[2] She began writing songs and performing at the age of five, and participated in talent shows at school and summer camp.[3] For her fourteenth birthday, her parents paid for the opportunity to record her first song in a professional recording studio.[4] After attending Guildford High School, from which she graduated from in 2009, she studied drama at the University of Exeter.[5] After her graduation, she relocated from Surrey to South London in order to pursue a career in music.[6]
Career
Originally known by the name Loop,[7][8] Buchanan rebranded herself as Call Me Loop. In April 2016, Call Me Loop independently released her debut single, "Thinking of You".[3] This was followed by various single releases including "Losing My Mind", "As If" and "Know Me Better".[9] "As If" received attention from the public when Elton John selected the song to play on his Beats 1 radio show.[10] In May 2017, she supported English DJ Jonas Blue on his European tour.[10] Later that month, she released a self-titled extended play, which was acclaimed by critics.[11] Later that year, she released "Maybe I'm a Liar", which Popjustice described as a "sprightly, R&B‑infused tropical slinker".[12]
Following the release of more singles including "Give 'n' Take", "Love the Lie", "Business" and "Silly Boy", Call Me Loop released her second extended play, Drama.[13] Georgia Maher of The Line of Best Fit described Drama as a "solid collection of vibrant, infectious pop wonders", and titled her a "rising pop maverick", complimenting her songwriting ability.[14] In 2020, "React", a song she co-wrote, was released by The Pussycat Dolls.[15] She expressed her excitement at writing for them, commenting: "To have written it for an iconic girl band that I grew up listening to is just mind-blowing."[16] This was followed by the release of her next singles, "Downhill From Here"[17] and "Strike".[18] She returned in 2022 with the singles "Year of the Ex" and "Painkiller".[19] In 2023, she released her final single, "Goodbye Song". She explained that independently releasing music was no longer financially viable for her and began focusing on writing material for other artists.[20]
