Ivory Circle s Connie Hong is introducing herself to Denver s music scene all over again and this time, she s taking even more risks than she did the first time.
In late March, the singer-songwriter of the established Denver indie band launched a new project, releasing her first album as solo artist Fair Elle. The album,
I m Sorry You Feel That Way, includes ten tracks exploring the process of putting your heart on the line, getting it broken and picking up the pieces. After numerous successes with Ivory Circle, Hong says she was excited to break into the solo-artist scene, debuting with a subdued album that combines electronic vibes, Hong s natural voice, layered harmonies and empty space. Fair Elle s sound may come as a surprise to Ivory Circle fans which, Hong says, was the point of all this.
