Pop/rock singer-songwriter Elle King stopped at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum this afternoon to donate one of her dresses. Her full-length debut, Love Stuff, has become a huge hit thanks to the twangy first single, “Ex’s & Oh’s.” Her current tour includes a stop tonight at the Masonic Auditorium.

We spoke to her briefly at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum and asked her about her eclectic taste in music and what she learned from busking on the streets of New York and Philadelphia. The brightly colored dress in the background is the dress that she donated.
