Ellery hits the road this Fall on the heels of writing and recording a new full-length release. The new record, helmed by Grammy-winning producer Malcolm Burn (Bob Dylan, Emmylou Harris, Ryan Adams) is slated for an early 2010 release. http://www.malcolmburn.com
Since Ellery’s debut release in 2006, the acoustic lush-pop duo has accumulated awards and acclaim, touring nonstop in support of such acts as Hem, Vienna Teng, Teddy Thompson, Dar Williams, and Over the Rhine. They won 2007’s NewSong International Songwriting Contest, had a live concert show aired by PBS in over 40 markets nationwide, and were chosen in both 06 and 07 as one of Paste Magazine’s Top 20 indie artists in its Cayamo Cruise contest.
Ellery’s new record – their most ambitious project to date – is being independently funded via a tiered pricing plan they’ve dubbed “The Ellery Stimulus.” Fans can pre-order the new record at varying price points and get additional prizes: including their names in the liner notes, access to rare Ellery tracks, free tickets, songs written about them, and private concerts. (More information at www.ellerystimulus.com)
This Fall, Ellery will preview material from the new album and play favorites from previous releases. Fans can pre-order the CD (aka “join the Stimulus”) online and at all their live shows: http://ellerystimulus.com

Hello Tasha and Justin... Love your music (especially Song for Lovers). Looking forward to meeting you November 14th in Louisville... And thanks for allowing me to share your stage that evening.
I'm re-airing your interview and performance on my show this Sunday (4th). I wanted to wish you all the best as always. I see you're writing songs about the snow!... Is this a "flurry" of writing activity? (--Sorry... you set me up for that! lol!)
I hope to see you back in Philly! Happy Autumn! --Gene
Thanks for the comment guys. I can't wait to see you play at the Arts Village. I'm starting to get antsy. The two of you have true talent that is both captivating and refreshing. See you on the 22nd!
Huntington is an interesting town. Somedays is shimmers and others it's as vintage rust. Nevertheless, it's what I call home (for now). But yea, I'd love to have ya! I would recommend the V Club (real pro, real clean..some nice names have played there). www.wvclublive.com
A show together...let's make it happen!!
Thanks for the kind words, btw. Congrats to you both, as well.
