Linnea Siggelkow — the woman behind the musical moniker Ellis — is a rising purveyor of wistful dream pop and shoegaze. The Hamilton, Ontario-based musician was one of our Artists To Watch last year upon releasing her breakout debut EP, The Fuzz. Now, having recently signed to Fat Possum, Ellis is back with a lush new track.

“Something Blue” finds Ellis reflecting on the precipice of her adulthood, lounging with someone in her family basement. “Prone to wander/ Like a moth drawn to a flame,” she sings. “I’d give anything/ To go back to that day.” These reflections don’t come without echoes of regret: “Can’t you see that I am trying?/ I admitted I was lying.”

Ellis’ forlorn vocals glide along a stream of washed-out guitars and distant keyboard synths. As the guitars’ reverberations swell, her post-teenage catharsis becomes all the more immediate. Her story may be tactfully obscured, but her tone is universal to anyone who has ever happened to be seventeen.
