“Doty’s talents, both as a vocalist and a songwriter, allow her to effortlessly marry her jazz side with a more polished contemporary approach that pulls from blue-eyed soul and hand-clap pop. The result is not only widespread appeal — from purists to those with an aversion — but a sound that’s truly unique.” -Mike Bell, Calgary HeraldCalgary’s soulful vocalist and songwriter, Ellen Doty, released her much-anticipated debut full album titled Gold on May 29, 2014. The album features ten original compositions, including a co-write with Danny Michel (of Six Shooter Records) and a track by Toronto songwriter Kyle Zavitz. The official Gold album launch took place in Doty’s hometown of Calgary, with two shows at the historic Ironwood Stage on May 29 & 30, 2014.Now Doty is about to embark on a Canadian tour in support of Gold with her quartet that features Vancouver’s Daniel Reynolds on piano, London, Ontario’s Conrad Good on upright bass, and Calgary saxophonist and percussionist Oliver Miguel.Ellen Doty comments: “This album truly reflects who I am as an artist. Not only is it an organic blend of pop and jazz, but it gives you a window into my very deepest thoughts and feelings. I couldn’t be more excited to share it with the world! It’s my gold.” Gold is available on iTunes, Spotify, Amazon, Rdio, and more.
