Elle King was born Tanner Elle Schneider in 1989, and she sings like a barroom brawl in a honky-tonk that's also somehow a blues club. The daughter of actor and comedian Rob Schneider and former model London King, she took her mother's surname so her music could stand on its own. She plays the banjo, belts like a rock singer, and mixes country, rock and blues until they're one big whiskey-stained sound.
RCA Records put out her first EP, and its track "Playing for Keeps" became the theme song for Mob Wives Chicago. But Love Stuff in 2015 was the real arrival, led by "Ex's & Oh's", a swaggering, stomping kiss-off that reached the top ten of the Billboard Hot 100 and picked up 2 Grammy nominations. "Under the Influence" came from the same record.
Shake the Spirit followed in 2018 with "Shame", a rowdy blast of foot-stomping, and the In Isolation EP brought "The Let Go". Later came "Drunk (And I Don't Wanna Go Home)" with Miranda Lambert and honors from the country music establishment, and she has now racked up four Grammy nominations, two in rock and two in country.
