About this concert
L’attachement inconditionnel d’Elisapie à son territoire et à sa langue, l’inuktitut, est au cœur de son parcours créatif. Née à Salluit, un village du Nunavik uniquement accessible par avion, l’autrice-compositrice-interprète et activiste Inuk est aujourd’hui une figure incontournable de la scène culturelle canadienne. Ayant remporté son premier prix Juno en 2005 avec son groupe Taima, Elisapie a été reconnue à de nombreuses reprises pour ses différentes créations artistiques.
Lancé en 2018, son album « The Ballad of the Runaway Girl » a été retenu sur la courte liste du prix Polaris, lui a valu de nombreux prix Félix et a reçu une nomination aux Junos. Depuis, l’artiste Inuk s’est produite avec l’Orchestre Métropolitain de Montréal à l’invitation de Yannick Nézet-Séguin, a donné un concert au SummerStage Festival à Central Park, a offert une prestation dans les bureaux de NPR dans le cadre de sa propre session « Tiny Desk », et s’est produite dans une multitude de salles et de festivals à travers le monde.
Toujours entourée des meilleurs musiciens des scènes indie et folk montréalaises, Elisapie fait résonner la culture inuit avec finesse en conjuguant modernité et tradition. En septembre 2023, elle dévoilera « Inuktitut », un album sur lequel elle interprète avec sensibilité des classiques du rock et de la pop des années 60 à 90, traduits dans sa langue maternelle.

Elisapie Biography
After the adventure of Taima, Elisapie released There Will Be Stars in 2009. An eloquent portrait of the past, present and future of her muse, the North, the album gave rise to a massive 150-date tour of Quebec, the rest of Canada, and the United States. To date, it has sold over 25,000 copies.
Strong following this first solo experience, in autumn 2012 Elisapie will unveil a new album and show entitled Travelling Love. 'Love cannot be owned. It is something that is always moving, always flowing. That?s what I mean by 'Travelling Love'," explains Elisapie.
Accompanied onstage by four musicians, the rising star of "Polar Pop" will perform, among other works, songs from the new album, with its organic pop sonorities, its intermingling of English and Inuktitut, the poetry of the north making a fascinating foray southward.
"With Travelling Love I allowed myself to be impulsive, to create without fear. To accept one?s weaknesses and clumsiness, and to confront them, can sometimes be beneficial," Elisapie confides. The album further explores the duality between sensitive woman and ferocious spirit that lives within Elisapie. The stage show promises magic moments in the company of this jewel of the North and her musicians.
Elisapie, who won the Ambassador Prize at the 2011 Teweikan Awards for her work throughout Canada. On September 27, 2012, she will receive the Eval-Manigat prize from the SPACQ Foundation, in the Multicultural Song category.
