ELLE KING NAMED VH1’S “YOU OUGHTA KNOW” ARTIST FOR JULY 2015

CURRENTLY ON A HEADLINING U.S. TOUR

IN SUPPORT OF HER HIT SINGLE “EX’S & OH’S” AND DEBUT ALBUM LOVE STUFF

 

(New York –July 1, 2015) Pop, blues, and rock’n’roll singer Elle King has just been named VH1’S “You Oughta Know” artist for the month of July. Elle King is currently on a headlining tour with almost all of the dates sold out across the US in support of her hit single “Ex’s & Oh’s” and debut album LOVE STUFF.  “Ex’s & Oh’s” is #1 on the AAA radio chart and Top 10 on the Alternative radio chart this week.

 

Elle debuted her video for “Ex’s  & Oh’s” on VH1’s THE 20 and it has been in frequent rotation on the network. Click here to watch it now.  VH1 has been a huge early supporter of Elle’s music. Her single “Playing for Keeps” was the theme song for “Mob Wives Chicago” in 2012, and since then, Elle’s music has  been featured repeatedly in various VH1 series, including four separate times in the “Mob Wives” franchise.

 

King was one of the most buzzed about artists at this year’s Bonnaroo and South by Southwest music festivals, with rave reactions from USA Today, Billboard and more. Upcoming festival appearances include Lollapalooza, Bumbershoot, and Squamish Valley Music Festival in the coming months.  Click here for upcoming tour dates.

 

Elle has performed her single “Ex’s & Oh’s” on The Today Show, Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Late Night with Seth Meyers, and VH1 Big Morning Buzz Live in support of LOVE STUFF which has received overwhelming critical acclaim. Jon Pareles of The New York Times describes Elle King as “a sassy, hard-drinking, love-’em-and-leave-’em hellion with bad tattoos and a broad pedigree across rock, pop and country. She has Adele’s determination and Joan Jett’s stomp, Brenda Lee’s high-voiced bite and some AC/DC shriek.”  Additionally, Elle has been featured by The Wall Street Journal, Teen Vogue, People Magazine and many more. She recently contributed two songs to the Hot Pursuit soundtrack (starring Reese Witherspoon and Sofía Vergara).
