Elly Darrall – “Morning Coffee”

Elly Darrall is a talented artist who has been making her mark as a London-based singer-songwriter since early 2024. She calls it her favorite song she’s ever written, and you can tell it’s deeply personal.

The track is about wanting to be with someone while knowing the match isn’t right. That honesty is easy to relate to, and the way Elly shares it comes across genuine. The backstory makes it even more interesting. She had studio time booked with nothing prepared, wrote the song the night before, and recorded it the next day in just two takes. For someone who usually plans every little detail, stepping into that process must have been a big change, but it clearly worked. The end result fits her style and sounds true to who she is as an artist.

Elly is my favorite artist of the week, and she grew up inspired by music from icons like Bowie, Fleetwood Mac, Elton John, and Joni Mitchell, and you can hear hints of those classic influences in her unique and rich writing style. Whether she is recording original songs or performing on cruise ships, it is clear that music is at the center of her life.
