Introducing Elle BK (aka Lee Beth Kilgore)

This week I found some videos of a performance by Lee Beth Kilgore at the Bitter End in New York in February. She has a gorgeous voice. She sang 3 great indie rock songs during that show. I fall in love with her song "Space". 

After few research, I could finally find some informations about that girl. So Lee Beth Kilgore is known as Elle Bk. If you live in LA, maybe you have the occasion to see her in a formerly band Yardley.

Originally from Birmingham, Alabama, Elle BK has been writing songs since Junior High school. She was born into a musical family with a father who is a choral director, music arranger and has a Master’s degree in Music. From Birmingham to Nashville, then Los Angeles, and now New York – different inceptions of Elle BK have existed. She has now been playing guitar, writing songs, and performing in bands since 1992.

Young's Got Talent : Hillary Hand

Hillary Hand is a young singer-songwriter and pianist from Colorado Springs. She has been playing piano since the age of 6, it took her 17 years to put the pen to paper and write her first song.


"With lyrics that suggest a maturity usually reserved for those far older than Hillary, and arrangements that captivate, you can expect nothing short of brilliance from this artist in the years to come."

I found her thanks to noisetrade and after listening to her song during few seconds, I've been immediatly captivate by her voice. She has a particular and gorgeous tone of voice ! Her debut single "Take Me Away" is spellbinding song of whom you should quickly become addicted. This song is available for free on noistrade at the moment, so do yourself a favor and download/ share it.

Hillary Hand - "Take Me Away"

"Hillary Hand is tough to nail down. Listening to her music is like hearing the passing of the seasons in a 3 minute time frame. Her delicate and breathy vocals carry you in gently, and leave you in a pounding storm of instrumentation, harmonies, and aggressiveness. But she brings you through the experience so masterfully, that what should be a dizzying array of influences and sounds becomes a cohesive journey that you never want to stop revisiting."
