Nashville, TN (March 17, 2017) – The ‘wait’ is almost over as rising star  Lindsay Ell  revealed today her highly-anticipated debut EP  WORTH THE WAIT   will be released on  Friday, March 24   via Stoney Creek Records. Produced by celebrated GRAMMY-winning musician  Kristian Bush   (of Sugarland), fans and critics alike are buzzing over the budding star’s debut project.
The six-song compilation is stacked with vulnerability and is deliberate in its sequence, giving listeners a front row seat to a deeply personal narrative. Opening with the flirtatious “Waiting on You,”  Ell breezily croons, “I’m a July sky / You’re a bottle rocket / I’m waiting on you…”  

“Criminal” then marks a cascading mood shift in an undefined relationship, capturing Ell’s tantalizing vocals over punchy guitar lines. “Space”   and  “Standing Here”   are instantly relatable emotional stand-outs, featuring contributions from heavy-hitting songwriters including Caitlyn Smith and Ryan Hurd, respectively.  ​
