What's new?

Okay, now, this is exciting…

It’s Karyn’s first time back home in Canada since 2019. And she’s playing a series of tiny concerts across Ontario to celebrate her new and fabulous, soon-to-be released album SHAPES AND ANIMALS. A sort of pre-launch launch of her album that’s been waiting patiently since 2020 to be released. Seating at these shows is extremely limited! Please email karyn@karynellis.com and we’ll put you in touch with the hosts. You’ll receive an invitation where you can reserve your seat and get directions.

Where she’ll be and when:

****************************

By the way, Karyn’s open to adding a couple more shows around Ontario while she’s home. If you’d like to host a show in your city, please get in touch with us: karyn@karynellis.com . Let’s see if we can set up a date.

Curious, but unsure about what’s involved in throwing a house concert? Visit my page: karynellis.com/what-is-a-house-concert for more information.

Just in time for the holidays, grab your copy of “O Christmas Tree” and enjoy Karyn’s delightful rendition of this old classic that, according to NOW magazine, has “just enough Charlie Brownish playfulness”. You can download it here from Karyn’s store on Bandcamp.

Happy holidays, everybody! xo / KE

Yaaaaah! Sascha and I just finished our soundcheck for the Acoustic Festival happening TODAY in Düsseldorf and it sounds soooo good through the mains.

I am .

Really excited to play a bunch of new songs from my not-even-released-yet album, SHAPES AND ANIMALS. We’ve added a drum & bass step loop synthesizer to a couple of the songs, something I’ve been wanting to do for years! Debuting this new duo sound today. Woot!

REALLY REALLY excited to hear all the other bands, too!

Doors @ 14:00, show starts @ 15:00. Goes allllll day — till 22:00.

PS, I’ll bring some copies of the new album with me today, if you’re at the show and want to pick up a pre-release copy.

PPS, Happy that the heatwave has broken just in time for us to fill up the stage and turn up the temperature. Barruuuump. And it’s not gonna rain, either. Though it’s a covered space, so it doesn’t matter anyways. See you soon!

That means festival season. Ahhhhhh. It feels good to type those words. And so I ask you, why simply ease back in when you can immerse yourself in fine music all day long! At the ACOUSTIC SUMMER FESTIVAL on AUGUST 20th in Düsseldorf, Germany. Don’t know my time slot yet, but come for the whole day anyways because the line up is stellar!

We’re talking: MIDGE URE (UK); JAIMI FAULKNER BAND (AUS); SEDAA (MNG); KATE RENA (DE); THE BOLOKOS (GLP); FLUEGGE (DE) and of course me: KARYN ELLIS (CAN)

Karyn’s back on stage for the first concert in almost a year TONIGHT!… what a sweet way to meet up again, sharing the songs and the stage with old tribute buddies. For details / ticket info, visit Karyn’s tour page.

UPDATE: Roman (Nepomuk) and Romana Noack will not be performing at the show tonight.
