Married To The Sound

Genre: Alternative Release Date: 27 September 2024 Powerhouse musician Elana Stone shares her third studio album Married to the Sound out now. The release delves in to love, motherhood, climate change, social/political polarisation, friendship, love, loss, and lockdown - all served on a crispy bed of synth pop, hazy guitar, to-die-for vocal harmonies with a side of 70’s drums and in your face, fuzz bass. The follow-up to 2015’s debut EP Kintsugi, the album harnesses modern electronica, indie pop and balladry, underpinned by Stone’s signature lyrical vulnerability and ear for melody. Drawing inspiration from the great artists across the last few decades, Elana describes the album as “Billy Joel's piano meets Kate Bush's vocals meets Ben Folds Five's harmonies but with Unknown Mortal Orchestra or Tame Impalal as the house band.” The ARIA-award winning songwriter has revealed the accompanying video for single ‘Shitty Shit’ - a danceable anthem for the politically enraged written with bandmate and co-producer Luke Moseley.
