Elly Kace (she/her/they) is a queer sound healing mystic and indie artist living in Brooklyn, NY. Their baroque-pop portals incorporate earthy vocals, sparkling sound worlds, and sound medicine to conjure a new paradigm of radical self-love. As a lyric soprano, she has sung around the world at venues such as Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center – but lately, you can find her channeling sound meditation performances of her pop songs to sold-out audiences in NYC and beyond.
In an era where the folk scene is overflowing with artist grasping at modern trends, Kace separates herself from their contemporaries on the gorgeous “The Body.” The artist’s new single is a refreshing, artistic take on modern folk with complex harmonies that cascade around jumpy acoustics, creating a living, breathing performance. Kace can capture the essence of her artistry and, more importantly, fearlessly expand on it. There are moments on “The Body” that hint at electro-folk influences, while the stunning arrangement slides into a more contemporary side to anchor the listener to earth, only for Kace’s vocals to lift you back up to the solace that radiates from this performance. “The Body” successfully introduces Kace as far from another folk artist. Instead, the latest single from the artist highlights all the intricacies that make them such an exciting voice in the modern scene.
