Ellie Bleach
Ellie Bleach narrates a world of peculiar characters. With a penchant for cinematic storytelling, her wry wit and esoteric lyrical style harbour a biting cynicism that examines the strange eccentricities of modern life.
Raised in a seaside commuter town, Ellie was taught piano by a pet healer at an early age. Now based in London, UK, her indie-meets-baroque pop sound weaves theatrical narratives around a rotating cast of lonely, misunderstood people that dwell within suburbia. Spanning light whimsy to the grandiose, she pulls from the world-building singularity of Ethel Cain mixed with the charismatic showmanship of CMAT.
Support comes from BBC Radio 1, BBC 6 Music and Radio X, as well as The Line of Best Fit, DIY, Gigwise, Atwood, Rodeo Magazine, and more. Her second EP 'Now Leaving West Feldwood' is due out 28 March via Sad Club Records.
