Ocie Elliott
Ocie Elliott is musical duo Jon Middleton and Sierra Lundy from Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. A chance encounter in a café led to a spark, a collaboration and their ultimate partnership in music and beyond. Ocie Elliott has cultivated a fast-growing following through a captivating series of live acoustic videos on Facebook that were recorded in the cozy confines of the couple’s Honda CR-V. The novel approach has paid off with impressive streaming numbers of their most popular tracks as well as sold-out headlining shows. To date, they have released the full-length albums We Fall In (2019) and In That Room (2020) along with a slew of EPs and singles, with select tracks being featured on TV shows such as “Grey’s Anatomy” and “Sweet Magnolias.” Moreover, the duo has packed their own headlining shows and shared stages with Kim Churchill, Current Swell, Mason Jennings, Joseph, Roo Panes and Sons of the East, and have toured throughout Canada, the U.S. and Europe. The pair was also nominated for Breakthrough Group of the Year at the 2022 JUNO Awards. In 2023, they released the five-song EP Know the Night.
