Charting Within Months: Ellie Goulding
I tipped Ellie Goulding back in May in virtually the same breath that I announced Marina & The Diamonds would be releasing her debut EP on the taste-makers record label, Neon Gold, who are quickly making a name for themselves as the starting point for hotly tipped bands to take a step into the big time. I’m sure that “the big four” are watching every move they make with interest.
In a not-entirely-surprising twist, Ellie is now also set to release her debut EP, “Under The Sheets” on Neon Gold. If I tipped her back in May, it was just because I had an inkling… Now I can say with conviction that Ellie Goulding is definitely going to be successful. Everything’s there; the voice, the producer, the looks, the buzz, the conveniently hip record label… Radio 1 is the next stop before she starts challenging Alexandra Burke and Leona Lewis for chart positions. If her first single is anything to go by, she’s got every chance of winning.
