Anastasia Elliot Interview

Anastasia Elliot Interview

"The Sounds of Summer" continues! This time our guest is Anastasia Elliot. We have a deep conversation about how surviving a plane crash impacted not only her musical style but her whole life in general. We'll also be watching Anastasia's music videos "Bones" and "Cigarettes and Gasoline" with her in real time. Anastasia's website: https://www.anastasiaelliot.com/

Anastasia Elliot approaches her entire music career with nothing but the bigger picture in mind. Like a painter standing in front of a canvas, she views everything with a “whole world or nothing” mentality. One part singer-songwriter, one-part visual artist she cannot feel satisfied until she has created an entire immersive universe for her listeners; casting broad auditory strokes of symphonic pop-rock, then mixing them harmoniously with mind-bending visuals. Everything is meticulously planned to ensure optimal delivery of her vision. Her current masterpiece, forthcoming LP “La Petite Mort” is a testament to that state of mind.

“Every single detail of this album is meant to be digested.” And every single visual element from the props, set design, and costuming—was deeply considered and painstakingly made by hand. In every song, it’s Anastasia’s vocal range that captures the ecstasy and agony that comprise the very concept of the phrase “la petite mort,” which roughly translates to “the brief loss or weakening of consciousness,” “the little death,” and “orgasm.”

Currently based out of Nashville Tennessee, Anastasia has worked tirelessly building the next phase of her plan. This includes the release of new music, videos, scheduling live shows and tours. In just a short time, Anastasia has accumulated over 500,000 digital streams and 1 million views on YouTube and counting, as well as many live television performances. While on tour, she hosted her own panel at NAMM (National Association of Music Merchants) on the future of technology for independent musicians. In addition to headlining a benefit show with The Great Khalid Foundation for the families of the victims of the Walmart massacre in El Paso, Texas. Anastasia has also done many public speaking engagements with high schools, colleges, and corporations focusing on healing trauma and mental illness. This includes a lecture partnering with NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness) for high schoolers during the time of Covid.

Anastasia’s way of life, she says, is about finding outlets that allow her to stay open and inspired, that prevent her from ever becoming stuck. The end result of this constant stretching, unfurling, and relentless commitment to expansion can most poignantly be traced in the lyrics for “Bleach,” in which Anastasia sings, “I will never paint you a picture with a scene of obvious fixtures.” Anastasia welcomes you to her world and hopes you enjoy what she has in store for you.
