Female rocker Ellen Foley is best known as the powerhouse voice behind Meat Loaf's multiplatinum 1977 legendary duet, "Paradise by the Dashboard Light." Ellen Foley's strong, passionate - and at times bone-shivering - voice, combined with her acting talent and dance moves allowed for a diverse and successful career. Today, at 65, Ellen has the same rock 'n roll energy and great stage moves she did when she was fighting off Meat Loaf at the dashboard light.
After "Paradise", Ellen received several gold records and awards for her three solo albums "Night Out", "Spirit of St. Louis", "Another Breath" which were produced by high profile rock legends, such as Ian Hunter, Mick Ronson, and Mick Jones and Joe Strummer of The Clash. Her Broadway stage career includes starring in "Hair," "Into the Woods" and "Me and My Girl". She also had featured film roles in "Tootsie," "Fatal Attraction," "Married to the Mob" and "Cocktail" with Tom Cruise. It was in 2005 that she was inspired to resurrect her recording career. She met her current collaborator, musician and songwriter Paul Foglino, who wrote the songs and music of the show. Together they found common ground in pop rock, the sound of the Rolling Stones and powerful ballads about strong women, and released Ellen's first album in over 30 years, "About Time". The album has been well received from reviewers who have called it a "kick-ass roots rock affair" and acclaimed Ellen for being one of those rare artists to make their best record three and a half decades down the line.
