This young Bristolian cuts right against the grain in so many ways, that’s probably why she’s such a rapidly rising star in the British music scene. Her husky toned, lived-in voice sounds like she has a 60-a-day habit, was caused by a serious illness when she was three causing her throat to almost close up! Nowadays Elles and her band are currently tearing up the UK and European scene, scoring raves reviews at every place they play from Bristol to Berlin, with energy packed hi-octane performances. That trademark gravelly voice providing the lead. Backed in the studio by well known producer Brian Banks (of Michael Jackson, Lionel Richie collaboration) Elles is certainly headed for big things. And rightly so, this captivating, hard-working songstress mixes the soul of the blues with a contemporary edge, featuring meaningful and personal lyrics, big anthemic choruses and smooth blends of pop sensibilities. "Smoky blues that fizzles with pop appeal" Damien Girling, Songwriting Magazine "Elles Bailey gave it all, the complete package, energy, swagger and soul, whilst her band matched her passion and drive laying down hook after hook. Blues Princess, maybe, but with performances like this Elles will soon be taking the throne by storm" Blues in Britain
