konzert studio chur: Sunlight – An acoustic experience

Elise Tricoteaux's background already suggests that the classically trained musician does not fit into any pigeonhole. Somewhere between classical, pop and folk, she has already let off steam, citing Michael Jackson, Björk and Queen as important influences and has toured Switzerland and Europe with the "Cuerdas Guitar Quartet", the Irish folk band "The Led Farmers" or with "Penguins by Choice", an electropop band. In addition to classical guitar, she also played electric bass. Later, Elise immersed herself in baroque music, performed as a continuo player with the archlute in various ensembles and devoted herself increasingly to songwriting. In her 2022 debut album "Sunlight", she weaves the various musical influences that have shaped Elise as a musician into something personal and often surprising. She practices a fascinating balancing act between pop, folk and baroque music, which is reminiscent of Regina Spektor, Fiona Apple or Richard Dawson. The songs are in English and Swiss German with different moods: sometimes touching and personal, sometimes infectiously cheerful and often surprising. In short: a hymn of praise to the acoustic sound!
