Elles Bailey brings the sounds of Nashville to our side of the pond with her blues-ridden third album, Shining In The Half Light, out 25th February 2022.
This album has been about getting to know who I am without the show, the stage and the splendour. Unraveling the layers and being ok with them.” - Elles Bailey A meditative timestamp reflecting the isolation, uncertainty and worry prevalent amongst society throughout the outbreak of the pandemic, Shining In The Half Light is an album of self-realisation, but one that lets everyone share in its sense of realism and, ultimately, positivity. It’s a record inspired by those who spread love in a time of heartbreak, happiness in a time of fear, and connection in a time of loneliness. Shining In The Half Light sits at 10 tracks offering nothing short of a brazen, bold and bluesy disposition.
For many artists, the events of the past two years have induced a profuse of challenges. Still, when you’re recognised as one of the hardest-working women in blues, rock and roots music, not even the tumultuous ongoings we’ve collectively faced can falter the laser-focused determination that Elles Bailey hones so offhandedly. Having powered her way to the forefront of the British Blues and Roots scene in recent years, this heavily-awaited third instalment is yet another significant step forward in a career already dignified with huge acclamation and a plentiful of awards.
At the height of the pandemic last year, Elles unveiled Ain t Nothing But. A series of cover version livestreams totally unedited, completely stripped nail and bare to the bones.” The ensuing record was nominated as Blues Album of the Year at the UK Blues Awards 2021, where Elles was named UK Blues Artist of the Year for the second year running. A notable feat subsequent to her previous successes at the same awards in 2020 - winning Album of the Year with the critically acclaimed Road I Call Home, and UK Song of the Year with the album’s track Little Piece of Heaven (co-written with Bobby Wood and Dan Auerbach).
Shining In The Half Light will be available from 25th February 2022. Pre-Order here.
