about

Heartfelt and candid, soaked in childhood memories of her native land and the sea, the music of Elis Lovrić conjures profound emotions by means of her captivating voice and a guitar. This gifted Croatian singer - songwriter, actress and poet explores the rich musical tradition of her native land, blending acoustic guitar, traditional instrumentation and contemporary production in a deeply personal, evocative sound. Singing in her local dialect, but also in English, Italian, German and Portuguese, Elis believes that one language connects us all: it's the language of the soul, expressed through music.

The album "Merika", written and performed by Elis, is a blend of soulful folk with a pop sensibility, ancestral sounds and modernity, inner journeys and outer landscapes. With her unique voice and intimate songwriting, Elis takes her audience through the landscape of her native region (Istria, a region located in the North - West of Croatia), but also on a journey within themselves: "to allow yourself to journey within your soul, is to travel the whole world".

"Merika" is Elis' first studio project; released as a CD, the album contains 11 songs and the bonus track 'O Canto do Mar', sang in Portuguese. During a series of concerts in Sao Paulo in 2015, the enthusiastic response of the Brazilian audience to her music motivated Elis to release a track in Portuguese, and to publish the lyrics of her upcoming solo album 'Kanat Od Mora' in Portuguese.
