About Ellen Murphy

Described by Billboard as "darkly comical", Lenii's project has seen massive growth in 2020. Born and raised in Cork, Ireland, Lenii began singing at 18 months old, picking up classical violin at age 4, and guitar and piano soon after. She moved to New York when she was 15 to study production at Dubspot, an electronic music production and DJ school. As the only girl in the school, Lenii felt she needed to prove herself in the electronic dance world and subsequently spent years featuring as a producer and vocalist on multiple dance records. “I started making music that was more ‘masculine’ and wearing all black,” remembers Lenii.  Since then, she has written and produced for many developing and established acts. Most recently, Lenii penned two songs on Mothica’s debut EP “Blue Hour” which charted as the #1 Pop Album globally on iTunes, and #3 overall. After releasing her own string of successful singles, garnering over 300K monthly listeners, charting on Billboard Dance, on the US Airplay Chart, and at #15 on national Irish radio, her debut EP "In All Fairness..." was released on September 24th and charted as the #1 Album on iTunes in Ireland. 2 weeks later, Lenii went viral on TikTok with the first verse of her politically charged song “The Kids Are All Rebels”. She produced the track in 2 days and released it to over 60K new followers. With over 250K streams in its first two weeks and an album’s worth of work ready to follow, Lenii is setting herself up for a very exciting 2021.
