Ella Hunt Arrives with Debut Album, Blindspot

NEW YORK, NY - June 5, 2026 : Today, Ella Hunt releases Blindspot , a debut album that does not sound like a debut. Across 13 tracks we encounter an artist entirely in command of her voice, both as a sharp, sneakily clever lyricist, and as a powerful, shape-shifting vocalist. Produced by Jimmy Hogarth (ANOHNI, the 1975, Amy Winehouse), recorded in both London and her adopted home of New York, and surrounded by some of the best musicians each city has to offer, it is both a profound meditation on grief and the announcement of a major musical artist.

Hunt wrote much of Blindspot around the loss of her sister Emily to brain cancer in 2023, and the album acts as a bit of a time capsule, capturing the complex dynamics of a family pulling together to mourn. So we get snapshots from a deathbed, masterfully constructed like a short story ("Dove Grey"), the dissociation of early grief ("Six Hours"), and the catharsis of starting to move past a loss ("What a Relief"). But because life continues to march on even as the worst happens to us, we also get an anthem about maternal influence and what Hunt refers to as the "male gaze industrial complex" ("Subway Trash"), and the sexy, sassy romp that is "White Knuckles."

"'White Knuckles' is the most unabashed, playful, and petulant song on the album," says Hunt. "I shake off the sads, and I get to be petty and fun and hot as fuck."

Blindspot features contributions from London's Leo Abrahams (Brian Eno, Imogen Heap), Samuel Dixon (Adele, Sia) and Chris Vatalaro (Laurie Anderson, Sam Amidon), and New York's Thomas Bartlett (Sufjan Stevens, Florence and the Machine), Oren Bloedow (Elysian Fields), Spencer Murphy (Nick Hakim) and Craig Weinrib (Sam Gendel).

Following her sold-out debut at the legendary Café Carlyle, Ella Hunt and her band will celebrate Blindspot with headline shows at NYC's Le Poisson Rouge on June 8th, and LA's School Night at The Airliner on June 11th, presented by KCRW and MakeOutMusic.

Primarily known, until now, as an actress, Ella Hunt can also be seen starring in Mindy Kaling's new series, Not Suitable for Work , streaming on Hulu and Disney+, with new episodes out on Tuesdays.
