ELISE BOULANGER
| Elise Boulanger is a sweet darkness wrapped in orchestral instrumentation. Hailing from Vancouver/ Nanaimo, Canada, this Chamber-Pop artist completely captivates audiences with her haunting avalanche of a voice. Deemed as “definitely one to watch” by the Times Colonist, Boulanger is influenced by nature and is sonically reminiscent of Kate Bush.
THE SHORTIES | The Shorties is a contemporary folk trio inspired by influences in singer-songwriter, jazz, and R&B. The Shorties are grateful to make music on the unceded ancestral territories of the xʷməθkʷəyəm (Musqueam), Sḵwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɁɬ / selílwitulh (TsleilWaututh) nations.
Cindy, Kaya, and Sydney met while studying Jazz at Capilano University and quickly bonded over jam sessions, heart-to-hearts, and love of cheese (brie to be exact). Together they weave colourful harmonies with honest lyrics that are authentic to their experiences with anxiety, friendship, grief, and hope.
The Shorties songs feel like a warm hug, togetherness, and tender commiseration.
