Born to the purple: Purple is the color of imagination and creativity and is associated with the transformation of the soul. Purple is bold, unique, independent, and introspective. Purple is a way of life. Embodying these qualities, purple- haired rock goddess Anastasia Elliot is a trailblazer in the Indie Art Rock world as she debuts the latest single “Bones” on February 22nd and accompanying video on March 3rd, from her highly anticipated full length visual album La Petite Mort. “Bones” is the fifth single from her DIY, 13- song visual story that began with “Cigarettes & Gasoline,” “Crash Landing,” “London,” and most recently “Masquerade,” that have garnered high praise.
On the inspiration behind “Bones” and the debut album, Nashville-based artist states, “La Petite Mort (‘The Little Death’) explores my relationship with the phases of trauma and rebirth following my plane crash in 2013. I wrote ‘Bones’ as a snapshot into the bandaid trauma bonding type of relationship that we often seek after going through something cataclysmic.
The kind of childish love that makes us chase the red flags while also becoming the red flags. ‘Bones’ is the ultimate distraction of fun, the comic relief of La Petite Mort if you will. The part of the story where I started seeking to control others since I couldn’t control my insides or my situation. It can be easier that way sometimes, but it never ends well.
This song came from my first misguided attempts to take back my personal power, looking for it in the wrong places that came easy to me and devouring many innocent hearts in the process. With the violence that is weaved into the more carefree and playful soundscape of this song, it shows the internal knowledge that at this time, there was no happy ending in a relationship with me.
When you are searching for a partner from a broken place, it will always end in another little death.”

Artist Bio
Anastasia Elliot approaches her entire music career with nothing but the bigger picture in mind. Like a painter standing in front of a canvas, she views everything with a “whole world or nothing” mentality.
One part singer/songwriter and one part visual artist, she cannot feel satisfied until she has created an entire immersive universe for her listeners; casting broad auditory strokes of symphonic power pop/rock, then mixing them harmoniously with mind-bending visuals.
Everything is meticulously planned to ensure optimal delivery of her vision.
Currently based out of Nashville, Tennessee, Anastasia has worked tirelessly building the next phase of her plan. This includes the release of new music, videos and scheduling live shows and tours. In just a short time, Anastasia has accumulated over 300,000 digital streams and 1 million views on YouTube and counting, as well as many live television performances. While on tour, she hosted her own panel at NAMM (National Association of Music Merchants) on the future of technology for independent musicians. In addition to headlining a benefit show with The Great Khalid Foundation for the families of the victims of the Walmart massacre in El Paso, Texas.
Anastasia has also done many public speaking engagements with high schools, colleges, and corporations focusing on healing trauma and mental illness. This includes a lecture partnering with NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness) for high schoolers during the time of Covid.
Anastasia’s way of life, she says, is about finding outlets that allow her to stay open and inspired, that prevent her from ever becoming stuck. The end result of this constant stretching, unfurling, and relentless commitment to expansion can most poignantly be traced in the lyrics for “Bleach,” in which Anastasia sings, “I will never paint you a picture with a scene of obvious fixtures.” Anastasia welcomes you to her world and hopes you enjoy what she has in store for you.
