The Indie/Pop Duo Broaden Their Success on the Hit NBC Show “The Voice”
Elenowen, the husband and wife musical duo of Josh and Nicole Johnson, have captured the ears and imagination of America since they joined country star Blake Shelton’s team on the hit NBC seriesThe Voice during their blind audition. The press also took notice: Today show hosts Kathie Lee Gifford and Hota Kotb became early supporters of the duo as well, and Rolling Stone singled out the band in its coverage of the show.
With their first single, “Honey Come Home,” Elenowen’s heartfelt, insightful lyrics and ethereal pop harmonies have continued to strike a chord with listeners, propelling the track straight to #1 on the iTunes Singer/Songwriter chart. Filmed in Nashville, TN their live performance video of “Honey Come Home” captures all that genuine emotional intensity between the duo and more. Check it out atwww.elenowen.com.
This song is just a taste of what fans can expect from their upcoming sophomore release, which they are currently in the studio working on (details will be announced soon). And the duo’s rising popularity doesn’t stop there. They performed a triumphant sold out homecoming show in Nashville in late May. Discovered and managed by Big Enterprises since April 2010, Elenowen recently signed with WME.
Prior to this year, Elenowen had been working at the same local Nashville coffee shop, living from paycheck to paycheck and dreaming of making it as musicians. They self-released their first album in January 2010, Pulling Back the Black Veil, consisting of 8 original tracks they’d written about their lives as a young married couple. Their passion drove their writing and desire to be honest, real and vulnerable to their audience. Now, since their exposure on “The Voice,” their debut album reached #2 on the iTunes Singer/Songwriter album chart.
In an industry hungry for something new, raw, and beautiful, Elenowen distinguishes itself as an up and coming act that completely and refreshingly satisfies its listener.
