Bristol based Elles Bailey (28) seamlessly weaves rootsy blues, country and soulful rock with a contemporary edge and her trademark ‘smoky vocals’ taking the lead. Her husky toned, lived-in voice sounds like she has a 60-a-day habit, but was actually caused by a serious illness when she was three. Her two EP's, both produced by Brian Banks, (Michael Jackson, Lionel Richie) 'Who I Am To Me' (Feb 2015) and 'The Elberton Sessions' (Oct 2016) were released to critical acclaim, and her debut album is set to drop Spring 2017.

No stranger to the scene, over the last three years, this captivating, hard-working songstress and her talented band have built up a loyal all-age fan base through relentless touring, through both the UK and Europe. She’s opened for acts like Wille & The Bandits and shared festival line-ups with Lisa Simone, The Mystery Jets & Wilko Johnson.

In fact, 2017 looks set to be a very busy year for Elles with over 30 dates scheduled in the run up to her debut album release in April. Her festival diary is also filling up very quickly. Elles will feature at The Great British Rock and Blues Festival in Skegness and will be opening for soul singer Jo Harman on her February tour before heading back into Europe in Spring 2017.

Like many artists today, Elles is breaking down the barriers of traditional genres, taking inspiration from many and fusing them together to bring you her own unique sound, which is earning her a legion of devoted fans, young and old, from across the UK and further afield.

Emma’s strengths lie in songwriting. Her main genre is Country-Pop & she has opened for Hermitage Green and Nathan Carter as well as Irish Band The Rising

Both horns and the rhytmic section are treated with graceful irreverence; as the musicians will rush to your concert and dance, as in a role-play. are treated with graceful irreverence; as the musicians will rush to your concert and dance, as in a role-play.

In 2016 they recorded and published their latest work “Old Tricks for Young Dogs”, more mature and refined. In this album they featured some important figures such as Matilda De Angelis (Rumba de Bodas), Mr. T-Bone (trombone player for Giuliano Palma & The Bluebeaters). They had the opportunity to present it abroad: in Spain at Iboga Summer Festival (and other concerts) and in the UK at Hootananny Brixton, London.
