Hailing from the San Francisco Bay, singer/songwriter Ella Dawn Jenkins creates melodic folk-pop via the project EllaHarp. Jenkins takes pride in a DIY approach, handling songwriting and production duties — in addition to designing her own harp, clothing, and jewelry. The first single from EllaHarp’s sophomore album of the same name, “Screaming Into the Void” is a great introduction to the artist’s lushly melodic sound. Minimalist click-laden percussion accompanies a serene harp sound and Jenkins’ calming vocals. Following up her debut album Who Asked You Back, which reached #4 and #2 on Roots Music Reporter Top 50 Folk and Top 50 Contemporary Folk Album Charts, EllaHarp seems likely to continue the momentum with sophomore album Screaming Into the Void.
