Eleni Drake
Guts

Vanilla Sky Recordings

WE SAY

Built upon an energising drum backbone, Guts is the warm and dreamy new single from Melbourne-based British singer-songwriter Eleni Drake. With its reverb touched guitar lines, hazy production and Eleni’s gorgeous vocals, the track offers a tantalising glimpse into her second album, Surf The Sun. Having released her debut album, Can’t Stop The Dawn, in 2021, the London-born artist has built a dedicated legion of fans that has seen her amass over 5m streams on Spotify and 6m views on YouTube (+111k subscribers). In 2022, Eleni moved to Melbourne for a fresh start, and her second album is about her decision to explore something new and needing somewhere warmer. Tastemaker support has come from The Line of Best Fit, La Blogotheque, Secret Meeting and more. For fans of Lana Del Rey, Mazzy Star and Billie Holiday.
