Eleanore and the Lost: a symphonic rock/pop band influenced by the music of Jeff Buckley, Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac, Bjork, Kate Bush and Evanescence

Reviews

Better than any female vocalist in rock going back 2 decades... I'm a rocker and it sounded amazing! She blew me away, perfect voice teamed with a perfect look! Eleanore should be up there with the best and no doubt she will. Had a great time Friday.

Windsor Festival uncover a gem... The Rock-star, Eleanore... has a voice that is exceptional. She encapsulated the emotion of A Mid-Summer's Night in rock. Not an easy feat, but one that the bard might have approved - she sang with insistence and love.

I have to say Eleanore & the Lost have done us all proud with My True Nature! Once again this is another masterpiece in their impressive repertoire, and I will certainly give it some airplay...

It might be her first time at Guilfest but Eleanore, the Cranleigh singer-songwriter, has racked up live experience that would make others blush. Winner of a television songwriting competition back in 2004 and finalist in the Live and Unsigned competition last year, the artist is already used to putting herself up for scrutiny.

The awesome vocal might and musical presence of Eleanore And The Lost are unleashed with a mix of rock, pop and grunge as the story changes direction. Perhaps a representation of youth and love, Eleanore, a Kate Bush-like vocalist, stole the show and certainly uplifted the audience, evident by standing ovations at the end.

Based in and around Guildford, Surrey, Eleanore & the Lost are a progressive, symphonic rock band and Eleanore's vocals lift the hairs on the back of your neck (she boasts a range of 4 octaves). The song lyrics are beautifully crafted, while the music has catchy, memorable tunes resonating influences from Jeff Buckley, Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac, Bjork, Kate Bush and Evanescence.

As well as promoting the debut album Parlour Game, the band also released a new single in the Spring of 2011 My True Nature – a commission from the major international charity WWF to commemorate its 50th anniversary as well as acting as a stimulus piece for its nationwide competition of the same name.

Recent gigs of note include headlining in a dance show put on by the Windsor Festival in September 2011 at the Theatre Royal, Windsor. The dancing was predominantly choreographed to Eleanore's music which the band played live on stage during the show and received standing ovations at the end.

The band also played at the Ashcroft Hall (Fairfield Halls) in Croydon in November 2011 in an 800 seater theatre - it was very exciting that so many of the audience knew the son.

Eleanore took time out of performing in 2012 to compose for the second album, which is now in production.
