Elisa Thorn (pronounced eh-lee-sah) is a versatile harpist, vocalist, and composer who has emerged as a sought-after figure in the Canadian creative music landscape, renowned for her distinctive and contemporary approach to the harp.
Thorn’s original compositions, weaving together elements of folk, post-rock, jazz, classical, and indie music, are driven by two primary artistic goals: to create music that balances abstraction with accessibility, and sensitivity with boldness.
