Singer-songwriter Ellie Gowers brings her folk, indie and acoustic pop to Studio 1 at the Exeter Phoenix.
Ellie Gowers plays Exeter Phoenix on Saturday 7 November, with the set starting at 7.30pm in Studio 1. She's a British singer-songwriter whose music has been described as a 'sunset-hued 70s folk-pop hug' — a line that gives you a fair idea of the territory she works in, blending folk, indie and acoustic pop.
Much of what she's known for comes from her debut album, Dwelling by the Weir, which draws on the stories of local people in Warwickshire, and the EP You, the Passenger. Those records, along with her live shows across the UK, are where she built her following. The newer material she's playing now pushes into more emotionally spacious and contemporary ground, though it holds on to the grounded storytelling that first won her acclaim. If you've followed her since the early records, you'll recognise the songwriting; if you're coming to her for the first time, it's a good place to start.
