Elle King          

Grammy-Nominated Singer-Songwriter

Elle King, a singer, musician, songwriter, and actress, is known for her unique musical style, borrowing elements from country, rock, and blues. Having made her debut in 2012 with "The Elle King EP," King's influence quickly expanded when "Playing for Keeps," a track from her EP, was chosen as the theme song for VH1's Mob Wives Chicago series. Her debut album, "Love Stuff," released in 2015, included the US top ten single "Ex's & Oh's," leading to two Grammy Award nominations and subsequent tours with renowned acts such as Of Monsters and Men, Train, James Bay, The Chicks, Heart, Joan Jett, Michael Kiwanuka, and Miranda Lambert.

King's career highlights include a collaborative effort with country singer Dierks Bentley on the song "Different for Girls," which won the award for Musical Event of the Year at the 50th CMA Awards. Her second studio album, "Shake the Spirit," was released in 2018, and King ventured into television, serving as a guest co-host on the MTV series "Catfish: The TV Show" in 2019. Her third album, "Come Get Your Wife," released in 2023, saw King embracing a country music style, while her musical style has been described as "steeped in every genre of vintage Americana."

Aside from music, King, daughter of actor Rob Schneider and model London King, has appeared in films such as Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo, The Benchwarmers, and Love, Weddings & Other Disasters, and made television appearances on shows like "Say Yes to The Dress" and "Pete the Cat." She has been nominated for numerous awards, including the Grammy Awards, iHeartRadio Music Awards, and Teen Choice Awards, and is a four-time Grammy Award nominee. King has received honors from the Country Music Association Awards and the Academy of Country Music Awards and continues to influence the music scene with her unique style and sound.
