Bristol-based songwriter Elly Hopkins brings stripped-back, song-led performances rooted in folk, alt-country, and blues. After several years carving out a reputation as a jazz vocalist on stages including Glastonbury Festival, Boomtown and the Royal Albert Hall, Hopkins made a deliberate shift toward writing her own material. Her solo sets centre on emotional clarity, sharp writing, and a distinctive, soul-baring voice.
Her debut EP ‘Animal’, released to critical acclaim in 2025, was praised for its authenticity and marked Hopkins as a compelling new voice on the circuit: “Full of raw, emotional energy, attitude and snarling guitars… the future for Elly Hopkins is very bright indeed.” Americana UK
