Bio
"I was forced into piano lessons at the age of 5, only to quit 3 years later. My reason was simple; I didn't want to play someone else's music."
Lisette Xavier is a Canadian singer/songwriter who has found a way to write pop music with depth and substance. Lisette has taken a step away from the generic 'happy love song' epidemic and finds inspiration through her endless ambition and sometimes tragic experiences. Often taking on a dark undertone, her songs are a reminder that even in our darkest moments we are not alone.
With a focus on sharing her music to the fullest extent, Lisette has carefully crafted a release of singles that have all been accompanied with professional music videos. Her most recent single 'The Shoe Collector'; which was released in the late spring of 2014, was the most bare bones of the collection. "The Shoe Collector ...Poignant and with understated elegance, this song breathes and flows. Very nice vocal performance *FOUR STARS* -Review Rhino." Now, with her original collection growing, Lisette has shifted her focus back to live performances where she and her fans can continue to connect and invest in each other as she prepares to take her career to the next level.
"...there is the sense that something special is at hand here, like an aura of impending greatness transcending the obvious musical talent and charm."
A born and raised Calgarian, Lisette was introduced to piano at the young age of five. By her eighth birthday, she was already composing original pieces and beginning her journey as a vocalist. After years of experimentation with various bands and groups, she took the leap in 2013 and began her journey as a solo artist.Since that time she has re-united with previous band mate Chris Jensen, who now joins her on drums for most of her live performances. Besides the obvious visual appeal of watching a stage balanced by a pianist and drummer, the two have an obvious chemistry that translates into powerfully played melodies that captivate the audience effortlessly.
"Lisette has the rare ability to connect with her audiences using her charisma and music, which has a way of making her performances feel less like a show, and more like a gathering of old friends."
With a list of shows for 2015 already lining up, and a tour in the making; this young artist is ready to take on the world.
