Elessar

Elessar is a 4 piece Emo / Pop Punk band from the South West, UK. Featuring Ricky Powell (Vocals / Guitar), Alex Evans (Guitar / Vocals), Jack Gambling (Bass), Dan James (Drums).

The boys have been friends for many years and after quitting previous bands, they decided to create Elessar UK late 2014. Nameless and directionless, it began with Ricky, Alex and Dan getting together in a practice room. The guys clicked instantly and began writing, what would soon become the Reflections EP. Jack was a late addition, as the songs began to grow, as did the need for a bassist. But with no previous experience, Jack was brought in to taught from scratch. Originally the band line up catered for dual vocals between Ricky and Alex, but as the songs became more complex, so did the lyric writing. Ricky soon emerged as Frontman, leaving Alex to provide backing vocals. Live performances also featuring Dan singing harmonies.

January 2015 Elessar announced their name all over social medias, growing a lot of interest, it was quickly followed by the announcement of their first ever Tour supporting The Wilde on their UK headline tour in April. Before hitting the road, the guys released their Debut track ‘Finding Home’, to give the fans something to hear before the shows. To this day, ‘Finding Home’ is still a fan favourite!

Since their debut tour in April, Elessar have hit the road several times more, and in April 2016, they embarked on a headline tour of their own. To celebrate the release of ‘Reflections’, they hit 12 dates across the UK, even selling out Leeds. The north has been kind for Elessar, and the band always aim to hit the north with as many tours as possible.

One thing that is guaranteed by Elessar, is a passionate live performance! Full of energy, movement and aggression. For the band, the stage is a place to vent their frustrations. With songs written by Ricky, it’s clear there is a meaning behind each line, and each song has a story to tell. Elessar have been described as one of the tightest live up & coming bands of the year. Be sure to check them out this year..

With ‘Reflections’ being a much anticipated release in April 2016. It was very well received by critics, some saying Elessar would be contenders for break through of the year. If you haven’t checked it out yet, it’s available for purchase and streaming at iTunes, Spotify & more!
