About this episode
Ella Clayton joins Nick and Sue to discuss her music, storytelling, and upcoming album.
Today Sue and Nick are joined in the Chatterbox studio by Ella Clayton. ELLA CLAYTON is a singer/songwriter from London whose breathtaking voice and storytelling ability casts powerful spells over each audience she encounters. She released her first LP, ‘Murmurations’, at the end of 2022. With her second studio album ‘Could It Be You?’ due to be released 24th April, East London singer-songwriter Ella Clayton spotlights lead single ‘As You Are’ a love song of a different kind. Recorded at George Ezra’s studio Hotel Quebec, the closing track ‘As You Are’ is a sunny lead single, containing a big crescendo with an extended finale. It is a rare love song about friendship, sparked by a mundane moment of spotting a close friend haggling for jeans at a market stall, unaware she was being watched. A warm nod to how platonic love is worth celebrating just as loudly as the romantic one. Blending soulful folk storytelling with emotional honesty, Ella continues to enchant audiences with her mesmeric vocals and relatable lyrics. The new record (out 24th April) transforms uncertainty into revelation with 11 songs mapping out modern love, loneliness and the quiet process of getting to know…
