Биография

While “Folk Music” has come to mean so many things over the past decades, Ellie Turner’s approach is both refreshing and vintage, evoking early Bob Dylan, and a tradition of bygone years, embracing beautiful imperfection. Originally from Dallas, Texas, Turner has always been creative, although her passion was initially channeled into visual art and design. It was during her time at University in Arkansas that Turner discovered old-time music through a local fiddle jam and became enamored. After several years in the corporate world, she found the courage to quit her job and move to Nashville to pursue music. In an era when it is possible to edit every note of a record into some semblance of “perfection,” Turner’s music moves and breathes, and reminds us where folk music comes from; the homes and souls of regular people, singing unedited songs for one another on quiet evenings.
