Meet Tan Ellis, the rising singer-songwriter from Albany, New York, whose voice channels the timeless spirit of Billie Holiday, Amy Winehouse, and Lauryn Hill. With funk legends Kevin and Glen Goins (of Parliament with George Clinton) as her uncles, music has always been in her blood.
Raised with a strict standard of excellence—“be in key or don’t sing at all”—Ellis developed into not only a gifted songwriter but also a standout cover artist. Her talent has already landed her features on major records, including “No Snitch Code” with Albany Lou, Crip Mac, and Mud Babies, as well as its remix with Uncle Murda.
Now signed to Y Not U$ Records, owned by her husband and manager Albany Lou, Tan Ellis is carving her own space in the industry. Her soulful, breathtaking voice is one you’ll remember the moment you hear it.
Keep an eye out—Tan Ellis is on her way to becoming Albany’s next big star.
