big sound with a loose, bluesy element that translates well

I love it! I like your style alot... IDK why but it brought me back to No Doubt's "Tragic Kingdom" - Not that you resemble or this reminds me of No Doubt; you have a very unique/original sound and a beautiful voice and you know how to use it! #KeepManifestingPositivity #EnergyFlowsWhereAttentionGoes #PursueThisI'llSeeYou@TheTop!!!! #ONE! - Take Care! Good Job! - Jonathan

Lyrics: 

I think there's a trigger I pulled without knowing 
And I'm watching the splendour slowly turn to nothing

Under dimmed out lights, silhouettes turn
It's not a goodbye I can't stand the burn

Cause I, should've shot you down 
Right when I could 

Don't try to tell me I misunderstood 
'Cause the words that drip off your lips for show
Are like murder telling you to ask for more

Under dimmed out lights, silhouettes turn
It's not a goodbye I can't stand the burn

Cause I, should've shot you down 
Right when I could

Under dimmed out lights, silhouettes turn
It's not a goodbye I can't stand the burn

Cause I, should've shot you down 
Right when I could

I think there's a trigger I pulled without knowing 
And I'm watching the splendour slowly turn to nothing

“Vulnerable yet cynical, Elea Calvet is above all
memorable.” - ​VENTS Magazine

Elea has since settled in UK and is set on becoming one of the most prolific alternative artists on the independent scene today.” - ​Music News

“Enviably young, Elea Calvet’s talent also ought to make you delighted and yet insanely jealous in equal measures. French-Canadian by birth, she’s firmly
Bristol-based, her urban grungy blues making her akin to a millennial Patti Smith” - ​Bristol Live Magazine

"Electrifying debut" - ​It's All Indie

"She has made her hallmark to a swamp-tarnished, banshee howl, like PJ Harvey or Patti Smith going gospel or the sound of yet another soul being sold at a midnight crossroads." - ​Dancing About Architecture

“Enthralling”​ - Indie Buddie

“this is just the type of empowering music that you should be listening to”​ - Afterdark

"It is elusive and evanescent yet ecstatic and emotionally universal" - ​The Swindonian

"It's a bold, confident and unique introduction to an artist who's destined for great things" (...) "Both haunting and nail-biting, Eléa doesn’t shy away in this spectacular effort, pushing her gripping vocal and blues rock guitar strings to new levels, forming a towering sound reminiscent of PJ Harvey and Feist." - ​Tap The Feed

  "The electrifying Elea Calvet will terrify and mesmerise in equal measure" - ​Songs of Praise
