After touring the east coast of the US, Australian indie soul/R&B artist Elsie and The Vibe, has released her debut self-titled EP, ahead of her debut Australian headline show at The Toff in Town on August 24. 

The Melbourne-raised artist’s self-titled debut EP, Elsie and The Vibe, weaves threads of soul, Motown, R&B and gospel into a dynamic fabric of modern pop to create an EP overflowing with ear candy. With the help of a crowd-funding campaign, Elsie is thrilled to present the finished product. The 5-track EP was produced by multi-talented producers Jonathan Dreyfus (Gretta Ray, Lama) and Robert Upward (emaar, Shelley Segal) and was mixed and mastered by Lindsay Gravina (Eskimo Joe, Thirsty Merc). The Vibe features Rob Muinos (Saskwatch), Olaf Scott (Saskwatch, Dorsal Fins), Justin Olsson (LANKS, Oh Pep!) Louis Gill (the OMG’s, Noah Earp) and Lulu McClatchy (Supergirly). 

Since the release of Elsie and The Vibe’s debut single, Riverside, in November 2016, the singer-songwriter has received international attention, receiving spins on college radio, Australian Radio National and community radio, and a series of positive reviews, with her music being described as “electrifying and monumental” (Ohestee). Riverside has also recently been selected as a finalist in the vocal performance category of the International Unsigned Only music competition. 

Elsie and The Vibe have developed a strong US following, touring the East Coast earlier this year via playing a number of indie US music festivals including Launch Music Conference and Festival (PA), Earth Day Festival (NY) and the Jersey Shore Festival (NJ). Elsie also performed at a number of iconic New York music venues including Pianos, The Bowery Electric, Fat Baby and Silvana as well as Rockwood Music Hall. 

Tickets to the launch show at The Toff in Town on August 24 can be purchased at www.elsieandthevibe.com or via www.thetoffintown.com. Special guests AYXNMD and Kye.
