The feisty 19-year-old has spent the rest of the year on tour with the band, and says that’s given her a “head start” as she readies her solo material.

Inspired by Motown, but influenced by the twisted soul of Gnarls Barkley, it has already picked up plays on 1Xtra. Mistajam says “Ella's voice is so soulful and powerful, she could sing the contents of the phone book and it would still move you. She's the truth!”.
