The talented blues artist and soulful singer-songwriter ELLES BAILEY from Bristol, UK, whose voice we have described as: “plum-peach with a satin walnut finish…” launches her double A-side single this weekend.
The songs come from her second album Road I Call Home due to be released on 8th March 2019. Elles has also announced she is confirmed to play the Ramblin’ Man Fair this July 21st with Beth Hart on the blues stage.
She says, about Wild Wild West, composed by Elles, alongside Billy Smiley [White Heart] and country-artist Catlin Rushing. “It’s about the darker side of the music and entertainment industry…”
“It’s about those who try to use, abuse and take advantage of those who love their art (Luckily, I’ve not met many of them, but I have danced with the Devil on a couple of occasions.”
What’s The Matter With You ,video shared below, was also written by Elles, with British hit-making legend and Ivor Novello Award winner and fellow-Bristolian Roger Cook and Memphis Boys keyboardist Bobby Wood.
Set against gelid drops of guitar, like frozen tears, with fragments of coldest piano, Elles yummy voice is the sweet-side of amber-warm & dark orange on this impeaching invocation. It’s as passionate as it is sweltering.
Her “Road I Call Home” Album Listening Party will be at Christchurch Clifton, Bristol on February 9th 2019
