Melodic melancholy is what Antwerp-born and Rotterdam based singer-songwriter Elly Kellner serves up. Her lyrics feel like a soft, warm whisper in your ear but are radically honest at the same time. On a guitar with just four strings she occupies a unique piece of territory somewhere between jazz and folk. Elly worked with Grammy Award winning producer Larry Klein (USA), Iain Matthews / Matthews Southern Comfort (UK) and Shannon Lyon (CAN). In 2019 she was awarded with the Tamoil Culture Prize for the Arts & Literature. Lyrically Elly tries to go beyond existing taboo, right into the core of her inner world, with the firm belief that there must be others who’ll recognize the mutual experience and hopefully feel less alone as a result.
