Synopsis

Product Description
Lying Awake is the full-length debut from acclaimed Cincinnati-based husband-wife duo Ellery. The album helped earn Ellery 3 nominations in the 2006 Cincinnati Entertainment Awards, including Artist of the Year & Album of the Year. Lying Awake was produced by past Grammy nominee Ric Hordinski (Over the Rhine, David Wilcox). Ellery consists of Tasha Golden on piano and lead vocals and Justin Golden on guitar and backing vocals."The twosome's airy yet organic pop has a soul-tickling emotional weight that many bands would die for. Starry-eyed yet also very grounded, Ellery's sound is romantic, dreamy, moving and flawlessly executed."

Soulful and reflective

"I caught a live show of Ellery last night in Ohio. A friend had seen them a couple times and told me I'd like them. He was right.

I didn't know what to expect, but as soon as Tasha opened her mouth and this exotic yet calming voice came out, I was hooked. When you couple that with Justin's voice, it is just awesome.

Granted, given the speaker system, I couldn't make out all of the words, but after buying this CD at the show and reading the lyrics, I realized how gifted they are as songwriters.

I even got a chance to meet them and have them sign my CD. They were very gracious and really appreciated the support.

I'm definitely looking forward to future albums by Ellery."

"I almost can't gather the adjectives to describe the album. The vocals are beautiful, the piano powerful, the lyrics deep and insightful. There is no song on this album i dislike, and several that compete for my favorite.



If you like cheery music, this won't be the album for you, but it's not depressing or morbid. Just somber and introspective, beautifully written and beautifully sung. Simply beautiful.



I'm tremendously impatient for Ellery to come out with a new album, i'll buy it without listening to a single phrase or song. I'm not sure how they could do a song i wouldn't love, wouldn't grab my various friends and force them to listen to it regardless of what other pressing obligations they have."
