robellis

Producer, Writer/composer, Orchestral Arranger, Multi-instrumentalist and Vocalist, Rob Ellis is a highly talented individual! Perhaps most widely acknowledged for his work with PJ Harvey with whom he has worked as a producer, arranger and musician since 1990, Rob produced and arranged the band's debut album 'Dry' and as well as providing drums/keys/guitars and vocals he also co-wrote 2 of the songs. He then went on to work with Polly on most of her albums including perhaps the most critically acclaimed PJ Harvey album, the Mercury Prize award-winning 'Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea' which he co-produced and provided both drums and keyboards for.

Aside from this iconic work Rob has also worked as producer, arranger and musician with a wide range of talented and diverse artists including: Marianne Faithfull, Scott Walker, Dot Allison, Laika, Charlotte Hatherley, Placebo, Martina Topley-Bird, Robyn Hitchcock and Ute Lemper amongst others...

He has also released his own compositions on the Leaf Label entitled 'Music For The Home' volumes 1 & 2 to great critical acclaim, gaining glowing reviews in The Times, Guardian, Mojo, NME, Independent and The Wire. Scott Walker also sampled one of these tracks entitled 'Arctic Crossing' to use on the Ute Lemper album 'Punishing Kiss'.
