Ella Thompson is a musician & songwriter whose music traverses the landscape of classic & contemporary soul. Ella's lyrics explore themes of belonging, both to the microscopic & the universal. She invites listeners to contemplate the vast expanse of human emotion and the interconnectedness of all things.
Ella grew up listening & learning from Australian soul Icon Renee Geyer, who mentored her as a teenager and took Ella on her first ever tour.
Since then she has toured with the likes of Mark Ronson and supported artists such as Lee Fields, Thee Sacred Souls & Angel Olsen. The last 12 months has brought a prolific hot streak of releases, with 2023's breakout Domino, and the soon to be released follow-up long-player Ripple on the Wing out November 15th on Hope Street Recordings.
Ella's collaborators are at the forefront of Melbourne's soulful DIY nest, featuring members of Surprise Chef & Karate Boogaloo alongside other local soul luminaries. The live show is a hypnotic, hard-hitting presentation of Ella’s voice propelled by a oh-so tasteful rhythm section and blazing horns - delivering a unique sweet & spooky soulful experience. When opening for soul legend Lee Fields in Melbourne, he described her as: “One of the most creative individuals I have heard in a very long time.”
‘A wonderful set of moody cinematic R&B/soul songs with a golden nostalgic touch reminiscent of Charlotte Day Wilson, Kadhja Bonet, Cleo Sol, and Charlotte Dos Santos.’ - KEXP
