Elles Bailey – What’s The Matter With You Watch and listen as we await tour & I call Home album release
Elles Bailey releases her double A-side
Over the past three years, Elles has arrived on the scene and single-handily built an international following by constantly touring, and promoting herself and her blend of blues and country fuelled Americana.
Wild Wild West, composed by Elles, alongside Billy Smiley and Catlin Rushing. “It’s about the darker side of the music and entertainment industry,” explains Elles, “It’s about those who try to use, abuse and take advantage of those who love their art (Luckily, I’ve not met many of them, but I have danced with the Devil on a couple of occasions!!!)”
What’s The Matter With You was also written by Elles, but this time with British hit-making legend and Ivor Novello Award winner Roger Cook and storied Memphis and Nashville giant Bobby Wood.
“This one is pretty self- explanatory,” says Elles, “It’s desperately asking the question to someone you love ‘What’s the matter with you?’ and trying to find out what’s gone wrong.”
Elles goes on to point out that “When making the video for What’s the Matter with You, we wanted to do something completely different to Medicine Man: something to represent the ‘soul’ and ‘anguish’ of the song.” The album is available to pre-order. However, recently-revealed problems with PledgeMusic have led Elles to also create her very own ‘pre-order’ campaign Check It OUT HERE, where fans can pre-order and get the same items as they can at Pledge Music, including her own version of the Access Pass privileges.
“Elles Bailey – Road I Call Home Pledge Music Update.”
The Road I Call Home’s first single, Medicine Man, dropped back in Nov 2018, charting to Number 1 in the iTunes Blues Charts, as well as getting added to the Nu Blue playlist on Spotify!
The double A-side single pairs two excellent songs and further heralds the eagerly-anticipated release of Road I Call Home, along with Elles’ forthcoming headline tour, taking this new material to the road that, as a passionate, independent touring artist, she does indeed call home!
