Ellie Gowers Announces Extended EP Release and Headline UK Tour – Nov’ 2025

"An all-singing, all-dancing folk polymath" – Jon Wilks, TradFolk

"Full of delicacy, precision, and gentle delight" – The Guardian

Rising UK folk artist Ellie Gowers has announced the release of an extended edition of her celebrated 2024 EP – You The Passenger, set to arrive this autumn — followed by a headline UK tour in November 2025. 

This expanded release builds on the critical success of the original EP, which earned national airplay on BBC Radio 2 (Mark Radcliffe), BBC 6 Music (Lauren Laverne's Fantastic Beats), and RADMAC, alongside the KLOF premiere of her video “A Moment” and multiple major playlist features. 

Inspired by the likes of MIPSO and Jeff Buckley, Ellie’s new material sees her pushing into more emotionally spacious and contemporary territory — while retaining the grounded storytelling that first brought her acclaim with 2022’s Dwelling by the Weir. These songs explore the aftermath of life on the road: themes of absence, longing, and emotional duality woven through rich acoustic textures and lyrical craft.
