British artist Ella Rosa is a singer, songwriter and storyteller, drawing emotionally earnest inspiration from her own life experiences, ranging from the nuances of family and personal relationships, to the trials and tribulations that come with pulling up roots and moving countries. Born in Henley-on-Thames, England, Ella started making and writing music at the age of 6 after seeing her brother live in a local musical. The beginning of her music career as an opera singer with Mannes The New School assisted in the development of the young artist. Even though Ella loved the art of Opera, she wanted a more creative outlet in her arrangements and writing which led her to the R&B sound with a hint of pop/neo-soul she delivers today. Ella picked up her life with family when she was just 11 years old, moved to New York, and now lives and performs locally in Los Angeles. Her experiences are conveyed through soulful vocals, underlined with jazz undertones, an apt metaphor for a resilient and upbeat approach to life as one of the “UK’s Top 50 Emerging Artists.”
