E. Ellison is the solo project of Lizzy Ellison (Radiation City, Cardioid). Her most recent debut, PILLARS, time capsules her experience re-emerging as a musician post pandemic, while simultaneously navigating a new relationship in a different hemisphere. While she traveled back and forth, she chronicled her time using film photography, field recordings, and writing/recording what would become PILLARS. The album is dark and slow, with harmonies driven by dry lead vocals, sad pianos, and acoustic guitars in ricocheted balance.
Since the release of PILLARS, her life has found balance, and with it a reinterpretation of the music. Now as a four piece, the music can breathe with an ease the record withholds, expressing a personal confidence previously unfelt. On August 23rd, E.Ellison and her incredible cast of musicians will take the stage at Dekum Street Theater. Accompanied by the field recordings and video projections from her travels, Ellison creates an immersive experience into the world of PILLARS. This performance will be recorded live and pressed to vinyl, fitting perfectly into the gatefold in which the original record currently lives, giving you both versions of how this music exists.
Tickets are $25 in advance ($55 with pre-purchase of live recording--estimated shipping mid-October) and $30/$60 at the door. Dekum Street Theater is an intimate venue with limited seating. We recommend getting your tickets in advance.This is an all ages show. Doors at 6pm, Show at 7pm. Refreshments/concessions will be available at the bar before and after the show.
