city: BrightonBrighton-based solo artist and multi-instrumentalist ELLiS·D is set for his second single release of 2023, the twisted, psychosomatic art-rock number ‘Degenerate Effeminate’ on Tuesday 25th April before heading out across the continent for a first European tour in between support slots with Razorlight at Brighton Dome (8th April) and Hammersmith Apollo (12th May).
Following a prolific string of releases in 2022, ‘Degenerate Effeminate’ marks his second collaboration with producer Shuta Shinoda (Hot Chip, Jenny Beth). Underpinned by laidback, swaggering grooves and
pulsating organ lines, ELLiS·D explores a different side of himself channelling the off-beat histrionic vocal quirks of David Byrne and Cate Le Bon as the track continually shifts and evolves before striding headlong into a monstrous explosion of fuzz and Mitch Mitchell-esque drumming prowess.
Reflecting on the single, ELLiS·D had this to offer:
“Degenerate Effeminate slices your personality in half. Its an egocentric look at the part of your brain that wishes it could switch off from the world and indulge in the hollow eccentricites of modern artistic life. It’s incredibly self-invoved. It takes your anxieties and flushes them down a pair of drainpipes.”
