Bio
Elaine Lachica's 'I think I can see the ocean' (Stunning Models on Display, 2010) lies somewhere between indie rock, art song, dream pop and shoegaze. Produced by Kieran Kelly (Angus and Julia Stone, Will Stratton) at the Buddy Project in New York with musicians drummer Mark Stepro, bassist Rob Calder, guitarist Aaron Lee Tasjan, string quartet led by violinist Rob Moose, and brass section led by trumpeter Jon Mizrachi. The album contains florid passages and intricate vocal arrangements which often stand in contrast to guitars that churn in dissonant counterpoint. Lyrically, the songs on 'I think I can see the ocean' deal with longing, identity, in-between spaces, and carving out a personal territory.
Born in Baltimore, Maryland, Elaine began studying piano, violin and singing at age 3. Elaine studied voice at the Peabody Conservatory of Music and the Royal College of Music in London. An acclaimed soprano, she has performed as a soprano soloist for the New York Collegium, Waverly Consort, Rebel Baroque Orchestra, Les Voix Humaines and at the Mostly Mozart Festival at Lincoln Center and the Montreal Baroque Festival. Elaine has also composed and produced two LPs- '9' and 'Apolune'. Elaine tours and performs with her band - drummer Mason Ingram, bassist Kyle McCammon and guitarist Andrea Longato.
