Ocie Elliott pen tunes that feel lived-in. You can hear their memories, experiences, and emotionsin the dusty acoustic guitars, the sparse production, and the graceful harmonies between Jon Middleton and Sierra Lundy.
Their life together plays out in the music as if projected on the big screen of an old small-town theater. Generating tens of millions of streams, earning a JUNO Award nomination, and inciting the applause of American Songwriter, CBC, PopMatters, Atwood Magazine, Exclaim, and many more, both of their spirits shine like never before on their 2022 EP, 'What Remains' through Nettwerk Music Group/V2 Records.
“Since we spend so much time together, our life becomes our songs,” observes Sierra. “We play offeach other really well. One of us will start playing around, and the other will join in. We fuel one another in a way we normally wouldn’t be fueled by ourselves. We think differently when we’re together."
“Sierra makes me a better songwriter,” Jon agrees. “She makes me want to try different things and experiment with melody. She pushes me to use new words and phrases."
Their interplay borders on magical, and it continues to entrance audiences. Ocie initially emerged with EPin 2017. The single 'I Got You, Honey' has amassed over 13 million Spotify streams and counting.
