About Elena Shirin:
"Electric sparkling trip-hop & neo-soul...the follow-up of Erykah Badu, Lizz Wright, Jamila Woods or even Alicia Keys" – Groove Magazin (Germany)

On May 15th 2020 Elena Shirin released her debut album "FROM A TO BE" via Motor Entertainment and received a magnificent national as well as international media response.

After playing her first solo tour through the U.S. opening for Moon Hooch 
the vocalist, multi-instrumentalist, producer, photographer and audio-visual 
artist Elena Shirin collaborated with producers/musicians like Demuja (A), Nathaniel Markman of Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros ‬(US), Moon Hooch (US), Oehl (A), Aramboa (A), Philipp Lichtblau (A),etc. allowed the Viennese singer to explore 
the wide range of musical and artistic interests that are interwoven in her album. 

At the age of 12, Elena found poetry and music as her own personal anchor and a way to express her self transformation. Mantras of love, trust, and empathy are
scattered throughout her songwriting. Transcending past her jazzy piano playing and soulful singing, Elena was constantly in touch with electronic music. 
She started recording and producing by age 15 and continued treating sound design as part of her compositions. Now cinematic soundscapes and energetic beats, deriving from classical music, jazz, tribal rhythm 
, and hip-hop, oscillate around Elena's subtle yet profound lyrics.
With the first three singles, the young artist already made it on #3 of the Austrian FM4 charts and got selected as the Fm4 Soundpark Act of the Month, May 2020. 
Since the release of her solo debut ‘FROM A TO BE’ Austria’s and Germany’s biggest newspaper and magazines like Musikexpress, Groove Magazin, Kronenzeitung, Kurier and many more took notice. She has around 8000 monthly listeners on Spotify, hit 40k streams of her single IMPLODE’XPLODE, and received several Airplay Rotations in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, USA, and Luxemburg since then.
