New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Montreal based singer-songwriter Eli Rose released her new French-language single, "Carrousel" today. The energetic track was written by Eli along with Banx & Ranx and Mike Clay after she connected with Clay at a SOCAN Kenekt Song Camp. Reflecting on "Carrousel" Eli commented, "The song itself is upbeat sounding but the meaning behind it is delicate because I'm talking about a rupture between two people. And that's what I like about "Carrousel," it has a contradictory aspect to it, here I am talking about a difficult event in my life but to a positive and hyper energetic sound." Shot on location in the Scarborough Bluffs region of Toronto, the song's music video visually emulates its contradictory tone.
The Francophone singer recently performed to a packed crowd in Quebec City supporting headlining artist Jain and was able to successfully win over the crowd including music critics. Reviewing her set, Le Soleil wrote that Eli, "received more than a warm reception from the audience" and "gained admirers on Tuesday night." Those wanting to catch Eli in concert can see her when she takes the stage at Canadian
Music Week on May 10th in Toronto and at the Oberkampf
Music Festival in Paris, France on May 15th. Full details on tickets and all upcoming appearances can be foundHERE.
Accumulating 10 years of musical experimentation, Montreal, Quebec based artist Eli Rose has surrounded herself with renowned collaborators such as Ruffsound (Koriass, Loud, Zaho), DRMS (Ariane Moffat, Fanny Bloom), Realmind (Loud, Allie X), Banx & Ranx (Sean Paul, Ella Eyre), June Nawakii (Nicki Minaj), Billboard (Britney Spears, Shakira) and Mike Clay (Robotaki, Clay and Friends) to create an addictive urban pop music with strong American influences. In the studio, the surprising combination of her angelical voice over urban and electronica beats produces a very contemporary sound rarely heard in francophone pop. In 2017, her independently produced single Soleil propelled her in the BDS top 10 and instantly made her a young talent to look out for. In her next LP, which will be out on Universal in 2019, Eli Rose promises to live it up and, above all, to remain as unique as ever.
