Ellur
Yorkshire artist Ellur writes soaring indie guitar songs about growing up and acceptance. Every word counts in each Ellur song, the Halifax artist is a storyteller and lets listeners further into her world with every track.
Having already spawned lead singles including its title-track, ‘God Help Me Now’ and latest single ‘Yellow Light’ (BBC Radio 1’s Track Of The Week), Ellur’s new EP (produced by Joel Johnston / Far Caspian) showcases her anthemic sensibilities to perfection, taking influences from contemporaries including Sharon Van Etten and Sam Fender.
With a busy summer 2024 culminating in celebrated slots at Reading & Leeds Festivals and BST with Robbie Williams, Ellur has certainly established herself a strong force within the emerging indie landscape. Ticking off a recent support with Blossoms last autumn, the gifted songwriter has drawn plaudits throughout the press community (NME, Consequence of Sound, Dork, DIY, The Line of Best Fit, Clash), BBC Radio 1 and BBC 6 Music.
“Her sound is majestically taking shape with every new release” NME
