A
gig
held at The Wardrobe Theatre
on Sunday 15th May. The event starts at 20:00.
Launching Dwelling by the Weir: the new record from Warwickshire musician Ellie Gowers, where folklore meets contemporary songwriting.
She will be joined onstage by double bass and strings in an exciting trio line-up, bringing these songs to life and connecting Warwickshire’s past to the present and future. A show not to be missed.
Ellie is a songwriter and guitarist from Warwickshire. What grew from a childhood love of literature and traditional folk song is a carefully crafted and emotionally mature catalogue of original material, referencing artists such as Joni Mitchell, Nick Drake, and Laura Marling.
Bringing to the stage a strong voice full of expression and maturity, her songs are written with sociological, ecological, and personal themes in mind. These songs, at times, are sensitive and tender, but are not without the fiery and darker discourse that have seen Ellie labelled “dynamic” and “one to watch”.
