Elisa Kate

Having just arrived home from her first International Tour of the USA, Australian Soul Pop Songstress Elisa Kate is captivating hearts everywhere from Newcastle to New York. With her powerful piano-based melodies and sneaky soul edge, it’s that deep smoky voice with something to say that’s had you from the start, and you’re not the only one. Having been told she couldn’t sing, Elisa was surprised when Sony’s Paul Dickson, who discovered Powderfinger, took a shine to her Debut Album ‘Treasure’ (2009) deeming it ‘Real talent”. Inspired by American Pop Rock outfit Switchfoot, at age thirteen Elisa had secretly begun composing songs of her own, keeping them hidden until years later when required to record a song for a University assignment. From one song to a Debut Album, in no time Elisa’s dream was being realised, with her hit ‘Any Smarter’ featuring at Hollywood’s MUSEXPO 2011. Having since performed at venues like Lizottes, Independent Theatre Sydney, Cambridge Hotel & Manning Entertainment Centre, recently showcasing at SXSW Austin, and to over 30000 people in support of Kamahl, Elisa connects deeply with her audience. With two Award-Winning Albums under her belt (itunes), and brand new EP \'Rising Above\' out on October 22, Elisa\'s rising success comes after performing weekly shows and gaining radio play throughout the North Coast and Sydney. Receiving great acclaim through a recent duet with Songwriting legend Rick Price, check out new Single \"Taking This Flight\" (youtube) by the warm-hearted farm girl and you\'ll be hooked.
