About —
Hailing from Georgetown, Texas, Elle Townley first turned heads as a small child belting out Disney princess songs. Over the past few years, she has evolved and refined her musical style to incorporate classic country influences with her own modern expressions. She takes particular inspiration from her favorite artist, Dolly Parton, as well as from icons like Loretta Lynn and Patsy Cline, and modern artists like Miranda Lambert, Carrie Underwood, and Megan Maroney.
Elle began performing publicly at age eight and performed with a cover band at age 10. She has steadily built a loyal following across central Texas, performing at a variety of venues and events. In March 2020, Elle earned a spot as a top-five finalist in the Houston Rodeo Rockstar competition. In October 2021, Elle placed first in the Old Settler’s Music Festival Youth Talent Competition, earning a coveted set on the main stage for the 2022 festival. In 2022 and again in 2024, she was nominated for the Young Artist of the Year award by the Texas Country Music Association.
Elle has released four singles and is currently working on new music to be released later this year. Her music is available on all major streaming platforms. She has been featured on The Country Network, WoodSongs Old Time Radio Hour, Austin Woman Magazine, Fox 7 Austin’s Good Day Austin and CBS’s We Are Austin programs.
