This queen of blue-eyed rock n’ soul, who grew up loving equally the sweetness of a Memphis horn line and the raunch of an electric guitar riff, whether played by Muddy Waters, Keith Richards, or Pop Staples, teased her blonde hair into a beehive in honor of Ronnie Spector and never looked back.
She’s the long-time vocalist with the Saturday Night Live Band. SNL40’s anniversary post-show concert also featured her star turn onstage with Jimmy Fallon, Elvis Costello and the B-52s.
Her latest CD, The Deep End, was honored on five national Top Ten lists and features multiple featured guests including Ian Hunter, Dion DiMucci, and Marshall Crenshaw, Levon Helm, and others. Ohlman topped the Alternate Root.com’s Readers’ Poll as top Americana vocalist, joining other winners Paul Thorn, The Mavericks and Rodney Crowell.
Elana originally hails from Queens in New York. She plays eclectic covers and originals filled with sincerity and emotion throughout the Tri-State area and beyond. Her soulful voice can be found at live venues, various beach clubs, private and corporate functions and also in the studio providing her vocals on various projects.

Ohlman’s legendary voice and stage presence (she’s known as “The Beehive Queen” for her towering blonde hairdo) have most recently been featured on Dion’s 2024 album “Girl Friends”, where she shares two duets with the iconic Rock and Roll Hall of Famer (their friendship dates back to his duet with her on “The Deep End”’s vintage soul classic “Cry Baby Cry”), and on an upcoming 2-disc LP tribute to the late, great blues guitarist Matt Murphy. She’s been seen and heard at the AMA Conference in Nashville; The Royal Academy at Ghent, Belgium; The PBS series “Music City Roots” with Bonnie Bramlett, Sarah Potenza and the McCrary Sisters; the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival’s Tribute To David Bowie; on numerous guest vocal shots on the HBO series “Vinyl” that feature a duet with Elvis Costello; on both SNL’s 45th and 40th.
