Canadian singer/songwriter Ellyn Woods is based in Montréal. She was given her first blue electric guitar when she was 12 and began practicing covers of everything from Feist to Pink Floyd. At 18 she moved away from home to Toronto, where she began sharing her original material with open-mic audiences. At this time her songs were vulnerable and raw, recollecting personal experiences.

Her gentle indie-folk EP, Sound of Home, was independently released in June 2017. It was inspired by her backpacking travels on the west coast of Canada. Sound of Home brought together her soft haunting vocals with her acoustic guitar arrangements to create an intimate, hypnotic sound reminiscent of Joni Mitchell.

Since 2015, she has worked closely with Montréal duo Sterling Grove, releasing several singles including “Sound of Home”, “La Vigie”, & “In the Backyard”. In 2019, she travelled to northern Québec to record an album with them, which is scheduled to be released in 2020.

Ellyn plans to release her debut album in 2020, which promises to deliver dreamy pop vocals & electronic beats.
