About the Event
Ellie Ford is a Brighton based alternative folk artist. Her songs are enchanting with her harp and guitar parts underpinning her sultry vocals. As a solo performer Ellie Ford is captivating, but she also fronts a five-piece band of multi instrumentalists who play a mix of modern and classical instrumentation including violin, clarinet, electric guitar, keys and drums. Taking influence from a range of genres, the band has an edge and variation that cements their uniqueness in the alt-folk world.
Since her debut album was released in 2016 she has enjoyed airplay support from BBC 6 Music & BBC Introducing, alongside sold out gigs at Brighton's Komedia and The Old Market. She has also played at festivals including Shambala, The Great Escape, Brighton Fringe, Oxjam and Wood Festival as well as numerous shows in London and Brighton.
