Multi-instrumentalist, singer and songwriter, Elise Carver is a force to be reckoned with.  Elise grew up in Tucson, Arizona as one fourth of a musical family.  As her mother was a classical pianist turned dinner theater entertainer, Elise's first job consisted of playing drums in the pit band for rambunctious, touristy, welcome-to-Arizona style dinner theater musicals.  Elise then moved to Boston to study classical voice at Boston University, earning her Bachelor of Music degree in vocal performance.  Trading in her operatic voice for something a little more edgy, Elise moved to LA to pursue a career in music.

Over the years, Elise has performed all sorts of genres in all manners of ensembles, including: singing soprano with the renowned Tanglewood Festival Chorus for several seasons, singing with the Boston Pops, playing violin in an Andean music group, performing mariachi music in her hometown of Tucson, and performing with an LA rock and blues cover band known as the Saboteurs.
