Halcyon is one of my favorite albums. The blends of folk pop and EDM/Drum&Bass is haunting and infectious, paired with Ellie's ethereal vocals and voilà you have a pop masterpiece. Lights/Bright Lights and Delirium are also fantastic albums that display her versatility as an artist.

Beautiful, unique voice !
Prefer the purity of her live simple stripped down raw vocals to the tainted commercial shit she does but I still like it :( :) !
Shame her time is now !
When people cared about music I'm sure an ambient or trance masterpiece would have gone done !!
After the shite 50 shades of bullcrap
no longer an artist in my ears.
