ELK BELL

Announces New Album

“REPUBLICA D’FANTASIA”

.

.

“Quirky & Captivating”

– Peter Clitheroe, formerly of Island Records

.

Republica d’fantAsia by Elk Bell is a bewitching concoction of pure melody, brooding piano and sweet vocals with dark and dangerous lyrics about desire, fulfilment and loss.

Elk Bell (Tenille Elkins) released her debut full length album ‘Superfragilistic’ in September 2011, a release that found its way to feature album status on RTRfm in Perth, WA and into the CMJ Top 200 charts in the US.

This new offering will be launched alongside local legend Hugh Jennings (Autopilot, End of Fashion) who will be presenting his own brand new solo album. Support on the night from The Belle Ends.

Strongly influenced over many years by local indie alternative folk/popsters Kate Andrews, Loo’weeze de’Ath, Benedict Moleta, Felicity Groom, Rabbit Island and Lucy Peach to further afield artists such as Kings of Convenience, Mazzy Star, Sharon Van Etten, Cat Power, Agnes Obel and Low Roar.
