El McCool

El McCool (they/them) is an indie folk singer-songwriter working on self- producing their debut album. In a genre often defined by nostalgia, El McCool looks forward. They don't just sing about where they’ve been; they sing about where they're going. As a queer artist from Indiana, they offer a vital perspective on belonging and resilience. Their discography is a masterclass in "unpacking the suitcase," frequently delving into what about their past does and doesn't define them.
