Ella was raised in a home that played the likes of Makeba, Masekela, King Sunny Adé, owing to her mother hailing from Zimbabwe, and guitarist father in local African band, alongside giants of jazz, Mitchell, Armatrading, this heady mix seeped into Ella’s song writing. Ella found her community in meeting the rest of this quartet, creating a unique, exciting fusion of jazz, Latin, soul and nu-folk. The culmination of Ella’s musical journey, with these gifted musicians is this exciting E.P and live Album Launch!Ella’s soaring and rich vocals accompanied by guitar; producing nuanced yet strident playing, Pete Truin on tenor saxophone; double bass is rediscovered in the hands of James Macphail; Treve Nicol funnels Latin American influences with a deft touch on percussion.
