The women of West Michigan’s very own Soul-Pop band, August, have come together to create a stripped-down yet fiery duo collaboration. August the Duo has everything from tight harmonies, to soaring vocals, to raw lyricism. This powerful duo is a soulful force to be reckoned with.

Ell is the brainchild and stage moniker of Michigan west coast native, Lane Ellens. In shining stadium pop he delivers tight hooks, dynamic bridges and subtle americana twists while his lyrics ruminate on life’s universally relatable minutiae. Three singles into the rollout for his debut album–set for release in August–he’s already soundtracking summers. Find Ell on Instagram (@whocalledell) and TikTok (@whocalledell) to get a front row seat for what’s next.
