Having played all of the notorious London Venues (Notably, The Bedford,Sound, Regal Rooms, Cobden Club, Notting Hill Arts Centre and the Late ASTORIA) and then relocating to Brighton to complete a degree in English Literature, Elissa Took to Brighton music scene by storm quickly earning herself a reputation as,
'That rare degree of raw talent who can create a pin-drop silence in a noisy packed pub of punters who simply can't resist 'that' voice, knowing they are present in the making of a star'.
Today, Elissa continues to write songs that transport us to that wondrous place you've never been before but where your soul feels at home. In an age of throwaway songwriting, Elissa's classic and stirring melodies evoke ageless values of craftsmanship. Blending evocative and honest lyrics with her delicate, yet powerful and soulful voice this girl sets a venue alight when she performs.
