Karissa Ella Gets ‘Personal’ On New Six-Song EP, Out Today

June 23, 2023/by Lorie Hollabaugh

Karissa Ella is releasing her new EP, It’s Personal, today (June 23).

The new project showcases the Ohio native’s vocals on material that offers listeners an inside glimpse into who she is as both an artist and an individual. Produced by Casey Wood, It’s Personal features tracks including “White Dress Worthy,” the collaboration she crafted alongside her mother, Lori Haasz, and the good-time anthem, “Well Tequila.”

“I like to look at every project as a milestone and I’m really proud of the growth, maturity and vulnerability I’ve discovered over the past few years that led to and shaped this one,” says Ella. “There were a lot of songs to choose from but I wanted each one on this EP to be a genuine and personal reflection of where I’m at in my life right now. My heart is happy these days and I think that’s apparent throughout Its Personal. As far as milestones go, this is a big one and it’s only the start of the reflective and expressive singing, songwriting and storytelling that is to come!”

Ella was recently selected as PickleJar and Cumulus Media’s first-ever Spotlight Artist on their new syndicated overnight show PickleJar Up All Night, which is currently playing the EP’s focus track, “I Hope Heavens Like” in 47 markets. She also made her debut CMA Fest performance earlier this month.

It’s Personal Track Listing:
Well Tequila (Karissa Ella, Joshua Gleave)
I Hope Heaven’s Like (Karissa Ella, Cassidy Best, Claire Carruthers)
Tecovas (Karissa Ella)
White Dress Worthy (Karissa Ella, Lori Haasz)
Hometown Bar (Karissa Ella, Aubrey Toone, Cassidy Best, Regan Rousseau)
Vintage (Karissa Ella, Alex Seier, Chris Buck)
