Earlier this year, Ella paid tribute to Preston in the song “Little Bird” off her debut EP, Colors of Love. “[My mother’s death has] definitely been something that I had wanted to communicate and had been thinking about, obviously, for many years,” she shared during a November 8 appearance on the third hour of Today. “I think it’s different for each person, going through loss. But for me, personally, it was just this pure message that I wanted to give to my mom.”

The song’s music video featured home videos of herself and Preston with their family from over the years. “There was a lot of crying, but they were happy tears,” Ella said of gathering the footage for the video. “And I wanted it to be a celebration, too, of her life ‘cause it’s all those best, most happy moments. And that’s how I remember her.”

The EP was a family affair, as Travolta served as a producer on the project. “I love working with my dad. If I could always do it, I would,” Ella gushed. “He’s amazing and he’s so protective because he’s been in the movie industry and the music industry forever, so he knows how to protect me, in that sense.”
