Elsiane

Unlike many bands & singers from Canada, Elsiane is a mysterious, sophisticated and emotional output of the collaboration of two people: singer-songwriter Elsieanne Caplette & drummer Stephane Sotto.




Caplette's unusual voice tone and down-going vocal put me on the verge of a waterfall, or self-awakening, or crying, or devastation, or few steps before reaching the top of a green hill from where a totally different world can be seen on a dark, cloudy and windy day. It's like giving the last and strongest argument in a discussion in which I'm so calm because I know I'm right.

Behind, Sotto gives a smooth downtempo rythym and does it well.
