Between these tours I would spend some time in Melbourne and visit Yorke Street recorders in Fitzroy, where I would pick a couple of demos and get to work over a couple of days. The limitations of whatever we had in the studio that day, and whatever instruments Stefan and I could play, or couldn't but did anyway, resulted in these recordings. Limitations are wonderful in that way; they keep things authentic to the moment in time and \u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003ethe environment in which they are made, and true to the people who created them. Though recording these songs separately over time and releasing them as singles and double singles was an incredibly joyful experience, it was not my initial intention; they were always supposed to exist together. I now have the opportunity to do that by bringing them together onto vinyl, with the addition of a new song, \"My Love\" recorded in May of 2026. \u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eI love collections.

Ella's ability to trace the contours of old wounds with poetic lyricism is an exercise in cutting the listener straight to the bone.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e2025 marked a period of major growth for Ella after taking home \u003cstrong\u003etwo South Australian Music Awards\u003c\/strong\u003e fuelled by the tracks that will make up the \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLiminal Archive\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e EP. All tracks received widespread airplay across \u003cstrong\u003etriple j, Triple R, PBS, 4ZZZ, Radio Adelaide, Edge Radio \u003c\/strong\u003eand beyond, as well as being added to over a dozen Spotify editorial playlists each and featured in \u003cstrong\u003eFrankie Magazine\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eThe Music\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eRolling Stone \u003c\/strong\u003eamong others.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Holiday Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43308990464048,"sku":null,"price":55.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0003\/9269\/1726\/files\/ELLAION_1.png?v=1781620969","url":"https:\/\/holidayrecords.com\/products\/ella-ion","provider":"Holiday Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
