August/19/1988

About me - I was born and raised in southern California but moved to San Francisco about 2 years ago. I discovered my ability to write songs about a year ago and have been hooked ever since! I am currently discovering my own sound and creative process, and I love to collaborate with other musicians. I am heavily influenced by soul, blues, and R & B music. I also really love folk, but my goal as a musician is to create my own style based on the artists I love listening to, including Sam Cooke, Otis Redding, Ray Charles, Lauryn Hill, Alicia Keys, Gavin DeGraw, Justin Nozuka, and Adele. Feel free to watch my youtube videos of my original songs as well as some covers: http://www.youtube.com/channel/UC86z1VDPcqE45fN-awfqWyA?feature=g-crec-u And check out my reverbnation site here: https://www.reverbnation.com/ellisahammersla?profile_view_source=profile_box
