Élise LeBlanc (They/Them) is a Victoria, BC–based singer-songwriter rooted in classic country, Appalachian folk, and western swing. Inspired by artists like Gillian Welch and Patsy Cline, their songs explore queer desire, heartbreak, and hope. Their voice is warm and expressive, with a classic country twang. Known for their storytelling and easy rapport with audiences, Élise has toured across North America and the UK. This intimate set will deliver a close-up look at new songs from their upcoming record.
Leah Barley (She/Her) is a Vancouver-based alt-country singer-songwriter with roots in bluegrass and old-time country. Her songs move easily between smoky blues, country soul, and stripped-back folk, carried by a voice that’s been compared to Norah Jones, Amy Winehouse, and Janis Joplin. With over 15 years of performing across Canada, Leah brings a natural ease to the stage and a strong connection to her audience. This solo set will showcase her voice, banjo and guitar, while sharing songs from her latest release Awkward & Heartbroken with stories and moments that shaped them.
