SIXPENCE BIO
Sixpence None the Richer began taking shape in New Braunfels, Texas in the early ‘90s, when guitarist Matt Slocum met vocalist Leigh Nash at a church retreat. The group recorded a demo before eventually signing with R.E.X. Records. Their debut LP, The Fatherless & the Widow, appeared in 1993 and their sophomore effort, 1995’s This Beautiful Mess won a Dove Award and was followed by the Tickets for a Prayer Wheel EP.
In 1997, Sixpence None the Richer released their self-titled album and two years later exploded globally when the track “Kiss Me”, from that album, was released as a single. The song has been featured in countless movies and TV shows and catapulted Sixpence None the Richer’s starpower into the mainstream, earning airplay in more than ten different countries.
Accolades continued as the band’s rendition of the La’s “There She Goes” also became a major hit. In fall 2002, Sixpence None the Richer returned to form with Divine Discontent. The band’s cover of the Crowded House classic “Don’t Dream It’s Over” pushed Sixpence None the Richer’s name back into the charts in early 2003. Although the group quietly disbanded in 2004, they remained active as individuals and continued to release music periodically, including the albums Dawn of Grace and Lost in Transition.
Fast forward to 2024 and all-original members (Leigh Nash, Matt Slocum, Dale Baker, and Justin Cary) have reunited and are writing and recording new music and preparing for a world tour. As a taste of the new music, you can hear “The Tide” released in late 2023 as Leigh Nash + Sixpence None The Richer, which has already amassed over 2 Million views and streams across platforms. Curb Records is also celebrating the 25th Anniversary of the band’s self-titled (Kiss Me) album by re-releasing it in a collectible vinyl series that also features the new track, “The Tide”.
Sixpence None The Richer has helped shape the musical landscape across generations and are gearing up for an exciting road ahead.
ELLI PERRY BIO
Elli Perry began her career as a performing singer-songwriter and guitarist at age twelve, by sneaking onto barroom stages around her native state of Georgia. During the subsequent twenty years, she independently released multiple albums of original material, designed and co-directed award-winning music videos, wrote charting songs for other artists, was awarded several artists development grants, maintained the responsibilities of manager, booking agent, and publicist, and toured aggressively across the United States, Canada, and Europe.
On stage, she may be a melancholy mesmerist, a ballsy chanteuse, or a howling one woman vocal wrecking crew- sometimes all in the same note. On record, she has amassed a body of work that seems to defy genre- shifting from Southern Gothic blues and folk, to experimental alternative rock and roll.
The thread of continuity throughout these stylistic twists and turns is the power of her live performance. Hers is a raw and arresting presence; whether alone with her guitar or as the front woman of a band, performed on theatre stages or busking on street corners and in train stations.
Elli took a protracted break from performing after a traumatic spinal injury damaged her voice. She is currently at work on a new record written during the years she spent off the road working to recover her voice and mobility. She recently returned to the South where she lives in the coastal wetlands of Georgia.
