About Party Nails

 Party Nails is the moniker of Los Angeles based musician Elana Belle Carroll. Hands down, Elana is a prolific songwriter, producer, singer and guitarist. Her new song ‘My 404’ combines pop, alternative and electronic, with a slight nod to punk. And we cannot wait for the release of her debut album ‘Past Lives and Paychecks’, a selection of heartfelt pop songs, front and center vocals and playful production with an avant-garde twist.
 At the age of 11, Elana was performing original Americana, at 15 she was writing country music, and by 18 she’d moved to New York City to write and self produce her first solo project, Vernous. After initially cultivating a dark electro sound for Vernous, Carroll found herself in Los Angeles and landing sonically in a celebratory indie-pop genre.

About the song ‘My 404’ – Party Nails

‘My 404’  was originally conceived to be a part of a Coast Modern mixtape, the song’s creative vibrancy, glittering melodies and soaring synths landed it a place within Party Nails upcoming release. The single is a lo-fi masterpiece highlighting Party Nails’ stunning craft for songwriting.

About the album Past Lives and Paychecks

A common theme throughout Past Lives and Paychecks album is about past experiences and the idea that two people could have met before in a past lifetime, or might meet again in the future. The idea of past lives also refers to reoccurring themes, such as money and power, love and heartbreak, loss or death and a higher power. These are all important aspects of humanity that seem to play a role in our lives regardless of what era we are in.
“On this album, I really tried to achieve a blend of SZA and Robyn, with bittersweet writing, some dance vibes, some sad vibes and a very real and raw anti-diva singing them. I wanted to create an album of memorable songs that landed all across the spectrum of alternative pop. I wanted it to feel fresh, but not too trendy.”
Carroll also teaches music production, most notably with the non-profit Beats By Girlz, which provides free music production education and mentorship for female-identifying youth. Having been heavily involved in LGBTQ activism and feminism, Party Nails hopes to be a figure for youth who are looking for someone to relate to emotionally and physically. Past Lives and Paychecks is set for release fall 2018
