In the last week, New Eyes has been taking off! 

I had someone the other day tell me that it was their new favourite song and that really filled me to the brim!

On Wednesday, New Eyes will be playing on Brazilian radio (@radioalternativarock)! It’ll also be playing on the radio in Uganda (@ejazzradio) this week, August 1 and 2! So cool to have my music travel all over the world!

I look forward to sharing more about the single, New Eyes in the days to come. Here are some images from the shoot for this single, thanks to Brianne Jang. 

It’s probably my most favourite song on the EP to sing. 

Have you had a chance to listen to it yet?

COME SEE ME PERFORM NEXT WEEK! I have my very first out of town gig and I am THRILLED!

TUESDAY, July 23, I’ll be performing for the camp goers at Writers Guild of Alberta’s WordsWorth Summer Camp in Red Deer!

WEDNESDAY, July 24, you can find me with Girl Brain at Maggie Walt Design’s Fashion Show (in the space above Flying Dragon Restaurant off Whyte), a fundraising event in support of Edmonton Fringe!

THURSDAY, July 25, I’ll be playing a FREE show at Dog Patch with James Murdoch and Lindon Carter! What a lineup- I’m so honoured to be included!

I am beyond thrilled that opportunities keep coming up that fill me with joy, excitement and confidence to keep pursuing my dreams! 

Thanks for being here and maybe I’ll see you out at an event next week!

For now, here’s a link to listen to my EP in the interim. 😉

SHINE, the EP, released 3 weeks ago and it was a night to remember!

Whenever people ask how the release concert went, I start to beam. I really couldn’t have asked for a better night or better humans involved. 

Looking through these images by my good pal, @BrianneJang, it’s easy to see how everybody shone so bright. 

I am still lit from within, celebrating the fact that SHINE, the EP and its songs have found their way into the ears of friends and new listeners!

If you haven’t had a chance to take a listen yet, I welcome you to- I’m really proud of this body of work and hope that it continues to find new friends this summer!

Much love,
Ellie
