Sydney Ellen is a lead guitarist, songwriter, and composer, hailing from Southern California. A multi-faceted prodigious musician, Sydney was first a trained pianist at age five. Growing up listening to Classic Rock and being heavily influenced by the performance style of Jimmy Page, Sydney expanded her musical talent to the guitar, and ultimately songwriting and composing for film and TV. After over a decade of curating her skills, Sydney attended the prestigious Berklee College of Music, graduating Summa Cum Laude. Trained by Michael Jackson guitarist, Jennifer Batten, and equipped with unrivaled talent and extensive educational pedigree, Sydney has made a seamless transition from dedicated student to professional musician. No stranger to the stage, Sydney has years of experience performing Classic Rock, Metal, Hard Rock, Funk, Motown, and Pop, but perhaps her greatest skill is her ability to perform on stage with an enviable sense of ease - a skill that has left her decorated with numerous awards as one of the top rising female guitarists in the rock scene. Sydney's music has recently been featured on Nikki Sixx's radio show - Sixx Sense. Sydney has garnered a rapidly growing worldwide fanbase and continues to connect with her fans through her love for performing, admiring unique guitars, and teaching guitar. Sydney is currently a guitar instructor for Fender Play™ and continues to write music for an upcoming release.
