Love Thy Neighbour Presents:
ELLIE BLEACH
London-based singer/songwriter Ellie Bleach has a penchant for nostalgia. Raised in the seaside commuter town of Southend, her songs draw from the rotating cast of bizarre, lonely characters that exist within suburbia — crafting an indie-meets-baroque-pop sound that melds witty lyricism with the strangeness of modern life. Taught piano by a pet healer at an early age, a wry, humorous vein runs through her music; weaving confessional songwriting with an old school showmanship that spans light whimsy to grandiose theatricality. Inspired by leading female songwriters of the 90s, from Fiona Apple and PJ Harvey to Alanis Morrissette, Ellie Bleach’s charming facade and razor-sharp satire harbours a biting cynicism that lingers restlessly in the wings. She’s performed with the likes of Kate Nash, Famous, The Orielles and Brad Stank, received airplay from BBC Radio 1’s Huw Stephens, 6Music’s Steve Lamacq and Beats 1’s Matt Wilkinson, and appeared on ‘One To Watch’ lists from both Dork Magazine and Gigwise. Her debut EP ‘No Elegant Way to Sell Out’ is out now.
