Ellie Finnerty

Hi! I am Ellie Finnerty, a professional and highly experienced solo acoustic performer based in Brighton.

I have been gigging since 2021 and my experience extends to pubs, festivals, weddings and cruise ships all over the world. My extensive reportiore means I can cater my performance to your crowd, be it a laid back afternoon set, or a foot-stomping Friday night. I can also take requests to make the experience especially personalised and memorable. I come fully-self contained and am available for bookings in Brighton & Hove, Worthing, Eastbourne and the surrounding areas. Please enquire using the form below.

PRAISE FOR ELLIE FINNERTY SOLO ACOUSTIC SHOWS

"I've booked her again aleady!"

"I've booked her again aleady!"

"I've booked her again aleady!"

 "I booked Ellie to play at Shooters on Mother's Day. I could not recommend her enough  Ellie played two sets with short break in-between. Ellie played a mixture of cover songs and original material. Her choice of covers was great. Lots of different songs spanning many decades but all instantly recognisable and she had the whole audience singing along. Even more impressive though was her own material. You can tell that Ellie's songs about her own life and experiences and town of birth were really penned right from the heart. A great day was had by all and I wouldn't hesitate for a second to have Ellie back at Shooters. (I've booked her again already!)" - John T, Manager of Shooters Sports Bar 

"You are left wanting more!"

"I've booked her again aleady!"

"I've booked her again aleady!"

 "I couldn’t quite take my eyes off Ellie when I first saw her perform. She draws you in with both her stunning, natural voice, brilliant guitar playing and incredible story telling. One of the rare genuine performers out there. From her own songs to incredible covers, you are taken on a journey from start to finish. A voice you won’t forget and you are left wanting more!" - Beth Jerem, Musical Director on Marella Discovery and now of London's West End Musical 'Six'

"We are fans for life!"

"I've booked her again aleady!"

"Professional, fun and just quality"

 "Ellie has been a magic member of our Powderham Live! Community since her first appearance years ago. We were immediately inspired by her talent, love, commitment to her voice, music, and individual style. She is a self-motivated professional who took full advantage of what our program had to offer. It has been an honor to work with Ellie and we are grateful to be part of her journey. We are fans for life and she has all our faith and support for a long musical adventure ahead! Go Ellie!!!" - AJ Courtenay, Countess of Devon and Founder of Powderham Live!

"Professional, fun and just quality"

"Warm tones and original style received rapturous applause!"

"Professional, fun and just quality"

 "Ellie Finnerty is beyond any doubt the most impressive solo act I have seen. I have attended several of Ellie’s live performances, from local venues in and around Dawlish to her amazing set of original songs at the Chagstock Festival, she always puts in 100% with her trademark dynamic guitar style and finely honed, professional vocal delivery. Moreover, Ellie seamlessly slips her original tracks into her sets, which are becoming so well-know that the crowd sing along too. I would highly recommend Ellie as a professional, fun and just quality live act." - Gaz Chatterton, Gaz Music Solutions

“She oozes talent and energy!”

She is a wonderfully talented individual!  Not only does she write her own songs and play an instrument with such creativity, she knows how to perform to all audiences, from small intimate pubs to large scale venues she oozes talent and energy. And best of all - she is the nicest, most down to earth person you will meet! I love working with you Ellie xx” - Michelle Upton, Bass Beatz Productions

"Warm tones and original style received rapturous applause!"

"Ellie played at our local Ferryboat Jam in Shaldon for the first time over 5 years ago and has recently returned to play some of her quirky original acoustic hits as well as a nice twist on some popular classics. Her warm tones and original style, as ever received rapturous applause!  It’s been great to see Ellie’s musical career flourish and would recommended her for any event."  - Fletcher, Musician/Lead singer of The Shrine
