About

Elora grew up in a household of artists where creativity was valued above all else (thank god cause she sucked at school). Her family wondered what type of artist she would become while her dad secretly infiltrated her brain by blasting The Beatles and Sheryl Crow everyday until she finally “decided” to become a musician. 

She began studying vocal jazz in college, but a not-so-surprising plot twist saw her studying songwriting with indie rock artist Kate Davis (site: long-term side effects of Beatles and Sheryl Crow exposure). Elora’s songs from childhood were often about food but as a young adult she prefers writing about getting scammed on the phone, the growing pains of getting older, and middle school love.

Elora co-produces her music with her synth wizard partner, Theo Walentiny and together they have crafted a unique sound that blends indie/dream pop, jazz, and rock. Her music is characterized by psychedelic sonic landscapes, soaring pop-inspired melodies and crunchy slide guitars.

Elora is currently recording a record with Paper Moon Records which promises to be her most ambitious and personal work to date. She is on track to become one of the most exciting and innovative voices coming from the Brooklyn music scene.
