Elli de Mon

**Elli de Mon** is an Italian one-woman band blending raw blues, garage punk, and lysergic rock into a fiercely original sound. Armed with a resonator guitar, drums, bells, and gritty vocals, she crafts albums like *Pagan Blues* (2023), which delves into darker, ancient-inspired tones, and *Countin’ the Blues: Queens of the 20’s* (2021), a gritty tribute to early female blues pioneers like Ma Rainey and Bessie Smith. Her work often accompanies her own writing, such as the book *Countin’ the Blues: Indomitable Women*, reflecting her deep reverence for blues history. With six acclaimed records under her belt and collaborations ranging from Jon Spencer Blues Explosion to Cedric Burnside, she’s become a staple of Europe’s underground circuit, channeling primal energy into every distorted riff and haunting melody.

Known for reinventing classics with modern grit (*Shave ‘Em Dry* gets a fuzzed-out punk makeover) and crafting originals that feel both ancient and urgent, Elli’s music—like *VS Daily Thompson* (2020) or *Songs of Mercy and Desire* (2018)—thrives on raw spontaneity. Whether channeling garage-rock chaos or hypnotic, sitar-laced blues (*Sirens’ Call*), her live shows and albums are a cathartic clash of tradition and rebellion.
