Ocie Elliott

About

Ocie Elliott is a Canadian indie folk music duo from Victoria, British Columbia, featuring Jon Middleton and Sierra Lundy. They've released three albums, six EPs, and several singles, with four million monthly listeners on Spotify, accounting for over a billion streams. The band got its name after Middleton, inspired by Lundy's obsession with the 1920s, found "Ocie Cleve" in a 1920s name generator and combined it with the first name of American singer/songwriter Elliott Smith. They cite Gillian Welch, John Prine, Bob Dylan, and Simon & Garfunkel as their biggest influences.
