RAVARY
Ravary is the solo-with-friends project of NC musician Justin Ravary Ellis (Happy Abandon, Al Riggs, Easter Island, Night Battles, Flash Car, Waldo Witt). The project released its debut album “Hands To Feel” independently in June 2020 after nearly five years of writing and two years of recording in between tours with other groups, changing jobs, and moving houses. Born in London and having spent the summers of his formative years with French-speaking family near Montreal, Ravary’s music is equally inspired by the synths and guitars of the 90’s Britpop as the large folky hooks of Arcade Fire and traditional Quebecois and North Carolinian folk music.
Ravary’s music has been featured on NPR’s “All Songs Considered” and WUNC Music. The live band consists of close friends and collaborators Jake Waits (drums), Jones Bell (keyboards), Eli Howells (violin), and Chesley Kalnen (guitars, synth).
