Ellis Pink
Dream-Pop Duo
Portland-based duo Ellis Pink paints a pop landscape that feels impossibly full for its two members, especially when created live from only vocals, keyboards, and drums with no use of backing tracks or loops.
The lifelong musicians compliment one another partially due to their stylistic differences: while keyboardist/vocalist Simon-Muir Filene was learning jazz piano and singing along to Sam Cooke records, drummer Connor Acott was playing afro-cuban hand percussion and discovering math rock. By the time the pair met, both had immersed themselves in the world of electronic music; yet they each held a deep desire to create those sounds in a live setting from scratch, feeling and improvising in the moment rather than meticulously programming. When they realized that collaborating with one another was the key to this shared fantasy, Ellis Pink was born.
