Squirrel Flower - I Was Born Swimming
Squirrel Flower - I Was Born Swimming
Coming from a professional musical family spanning generations, 23-year-old Ella Williams has always been surrounded by music. By 14 she started writing more seriously and released her first EP of folk music under her own name. After immersing herself in the DIY scene of her Boston hometown before moving to Iowa to study art + gender, women's, & sexuality studies at Grinnell College, she found a more experimental sound, linking her choral roots, classical harmony and ethereal chord structures, and released her first EP as Squirrel Flower, Early Winter Songs From Middle America. Her second EP, Contact Sports, is a perfectly formed collection of songs about relationships; intimacy, dependency, betrayal and geography, set to the backdrop of the American midwest. Vinyl pressed on rust & blue colored wax. Released 1/31/20 on Polyvinyl Records.
