Nieve Ella

In just two short years, the West Midlands singer-songwriter has galvanised a legion of devout
fans thanks to her wit and electrifying stage presence. An accomplished self-taught guitarist
with a finely-tuned ear for a soaring hook, Ella’s lyrics recall the candid songwriting of Sam
Fender. By writing astutely about growing pains, unfiltered impulses and those first real,
unexpected breakups with sincerity and flair, she extends a helping hand to listeners going
through similar journeys of growth.

Melding Nineties influences such as Liz Phair and Veruca Salt with an innate ear for pop
melodies, Watch It Ache and Bleed details the rocky road of heartbreak in eviscerating detail.
Yet the EP also celebrates courage, and the bravery required to realise you're not quite getting
what you deserve. “The person I was with... it was quite lovely and wholesome,” she says. “But
when I was realising that I shouldn’t be in this relationship anymore, I was like: ‘Oh, I want to
do all of the fun stuff’. The things a 21-year-old should be doing.”
