Elise Harper was raised in the Memphis delta on a diet of country, gospel, and pop music, and it’s made her the rising star she is today – despite only stretching as tall as 4’11”. She moved to Nashville back in 2015 to start her professional journey in music, and she soon became a force to be reckoned with.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

While her emotive voice had been her bread and butter up to then, it was in Nashville that she started to also focus on songwriting, meaning that she was able to tell the stories she wanted, and giving her listeners their own journey with her honest, heartfelt writing style and incredible delivery.

New single, ‘Bartender Therapy’, is perhaps Elise Harper’s most classic country tune she’s produced to date. Co-written by Elise, alongside Sarah Jones, Jason Lane, and Craig Wilson, it opens with acoustic guitar, piano, and percussion as it expands into a heartfelt and relatable song. From there pedal steel enters the mix, transporting listeners to a dive bar, where they’re ready to drown their sorrows over a broken heart. Elise\u2019s mellow voice and stirring lyrics certainly pull on the heartstrings of music lovers everywhere, and bring back stirring memories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There’s a further poignancy to ‘Bartender Therapy’, in that co-writer Craig Wilson unexpectedly died in March last year. Known for his exceptional songwriting talents, Craig considered ‘Bartender Therapy’ to be one of his favourites, and the song, as well as the music video that accompanies it, is a dream that Elise has fulfilled in his memory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
