About Ella Haber

A seasoned musician with a foundation in classical piano, trumpet, and vocals, Ella Haber embarked on her musical journey at the tender age of 5. A multifaceted artist, linguist, and activist, Ella’s profound influences and the art within her storytelling uplift her as a crucial voice and important leader within her communities.

Shocked by a hushed crowd reaction at her first public performance, Ella’s realisation her voice could halt and occupy an audience’s thoughts bleeds into all aspects of her life. Imbued with the poetic spirit of 60s luminaries like Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell, she discovered a love for the enchanting world of jazz during her high school years, delving into songwriting. This exploration led her down the rabbit hole of jazz and soul, from the likes of Ella Fitzgerald and Nina Simone to contemporary icons like Amy Winehouse and Erykah Badu.

Ella’s musical journey took a notable turn with the release of her debut single in 2019, marking her unmistakable presence. A trilingual multi-instrumentalist, Ella’s ability to communicate and forge connections through her music imbues her live performances with a spellbinding magic. The acclaim for her debut EP, ‘Clay’, resonated globally, with support pouring in from esteemed radio, such as BBC 1XTRA, MiSoul, Jazz FM, Worldwide FM, triple J, and FBi Radio.

The success of ‘Clay’ paved the way for a sold-out Sydney show and she embarked on a debut Australian East Coast headline tour in celebration of her record. Earning recognition from UK tastemakers, Ella was the sole representative from Sydney invited to perform at Gilles Peterson’s “We Out Here” festival in London. Her talent was further highlighted when Jamz Supernova (BBC 1XTRA/Future Bounce) selected her for an exclusive London headline showcase alongside Soul Has No Tempo label-mate Tiana Khasi.
