Kaana Ellie and the Remedies

Kaana Ellie is a rising star on the London soul circuit. Hailing from the streets of Tottenham, North London, youth worker Kaana began developing her vocals in the church from an early age. Taking the skills and influences gained from not only church, but an African mother, West Indian father and London town. Kaana decided to take her passion further and began studying music at college and University.
It was at Westminster University where she really began to develop as an artist and find her sound. Forming her band the “Remedies” they began to experiment with her songs. Working with a band helped combine her Soulful melodies with funk fuelled grooves and rhythms that injected a new energy into Kaana and her performance. As she began to gig and record with the band she found a new level of performance and confidence that left people smiling, cheering and dancing.
Her debut ep “Better Late Than Never” is filled with tales of love, pain, loss and life that provide positive messages for the youth she works with on a day to day basis.
Backed by her 7 piece band, ‘The Remedies’, Kaana has a Soul/Funk soundtrack to her words that pays tribute to all the great acts that have represented this style of music over the decades. Kaana and the band have been gigging on the London Soul and acoustic circuit for the past 18 months and have played at venues such as Soho Revue bar and Jazz Cafe. Kaanas second ep (Now Or Never ) is due out later this year.
