Blanche Ellis

Though Camden born, Blanche Ellis might have come down from the mountains or in from the Third Ward rain. Her music harks on the songs of Karen Dalton and Gillian Welch, and keeps good company with Billie Holiday's ballads and the soft edges of sleepy Delta Blues. 

Having spent much of her twenties busking around the American South, selling artwork in street markets and picking up folk songs in Camden pubs, Blanche is settled in London, bringing her thoughtful, literate songs to the city through keen, frailed banjo, softly picked guitar and a voice like a low, moaning rail.
