7/25 | PERFORMANCES BY ELLI PERRY AND ISAAC SMITH

ELLI PERRY

Elli Perry began her career as a performing singer, songwriter, guitarist, and producer at age twelve, by sneaking onto barroom stages around her native state of Georgia. During the subsequent twenty years, she independently released multiple albums of original material, designed and co-directed award-winning music videos, wrote charting songs for other artists, was awarded several artists development grants, maintained the responsibilities of manager, booking agent, and publicist, and toured aggressively across the United States, Canada, and Europe.

On stage, she may be a melancholy mesmerist, a ballsy chanteuse, or a howling one woman vocal wrecking crew- sometimes all in the same note. On record, she has amassed a body of work that seems to defy genre- shifting from Southern Gothic blues and folk, to experimental alternative rock and roll. The thread of continuity throughout these stylistic twists and turns is the power of her live performance. Hers is a raw and arresting presence; whether alone with her guitar or as the front woman of a band, performed on theatre stages or busking on street corners and in train stations.

Elli took a protracted break from performing after a traumatic spinal injury damaged her voice. She is currently at work on a new record written during the years she spent off the road, recovering her voice and mobility. She recently returned to the South where she lives in the coastal wetlands of Georgia.

 

ISAAC SMITH

Isaac Smith is an Americana singer-songwriter from Savannah, Georgia. Most of Smiths music contains themes of romance, longing, heartbreak and redemption. He is known for his bellowing vocals and dynamic musical sounds through guitar, piano, and violin.

As a violinist, Isaac has backed artist, including Paul McDonald, Ed Roland (collective soul), Randal Bramblett, Chloe Agnew, Maggie Rose, Mike Ferris, Time Sawyer, and many more. Currently on tour with Cordovas.
