Their unique blend of raw lyricism and avant-garde artistry makes this an experience as stirring as it is unforgettable.

Canadian Inuk singer-songwriter Elisapie’s music will get your attention. It will sound familiar, with her lovely, soulful, voice that slides effortlessly from folk to rock and back again.

Elisapie reinvents iconic pop and rock songs, beautifully and with intention, to connect to her memories of growing up in Nunavik among the people, places, and language she can never forget.
