About Ellie Goulding
Ellie Goulding is an acclaimed English singer-songwriter whose distinctive sound blends indie pop, folk, and electronic influences. Within a year of signing her first record deal, she achieved the prestigious double feat of winning the Brit Awards Critics' Choice prize and topping the BBC Sound of poll. Her debut album, Lights, entered the UK charts at number one and earned triple-platinum status, while the title track became a phenomenal success in the United States, remaining on the singles chart for over a year. This international momentum continued with her second chart-topping record, Halcyon, and high-profile collaborations with artists such as Calvin Harris and Skrillex.
Demonstrating incredible versatility, she has performed for global leaders at the White House and the Nobel Peace Prize Concert, and she was personally selected to perform the opening song at the wedding reception of the Prince and Princess of Wales. To date, she has released five studio albums and sold more than 15 million singles in the United Kingdom alone. Her career is marked by massive hits including Burn, Anything Could Happen, and her celebrated rendition of Elton John's Your Song.
Beyond her recorded output, she is a seasoned live performer who has supported major artists like Katy Perry on world tours. For private bookings and corporate events, she offers flexible performance arrangements ranging from an intimate acoustic trio to a powerful 10-piece backing band. Professional organisers secure her services for her unique vocal presence and her ability to captivate diverse audiences with a repertoire of world-renowned hits.
