2021 ELLIE IS ON A MURAL
COOLEST thing
EVER! Ellie is featured on a mural in downtown Boise, 5th and Main Street. It
was created by Hawk Sahlein with Sector 17 and is from a photo taken by Gregg
Mizuta at a benefit for Surel's Place. Interestingly, the photos from
that day are also the one we used for our CD art that Ellie recorded with Bruce Forman. Due to the fact that the 2 story part of the building faces the street, the image was flipped... Ellie is not left handed.
LOL
2021!!!!! Life is getting back to normal. We have SHOWS!!! and GIGS!!!
