“Likened to artists such as Joan Baez, Joni Mitchell, and Melissa Etheridge, the sound of Carlisle is that of a strong, skillful and intelligent woman with a voice full of poetry. ” - Good Times Santa Cruz

Elisabeth Carlisle Band

With Amir Aly, Pelle Jernryd, Mattias Pedersen, Jörgen Lindström, and Göran Engström 

Elisabeth Carlisle is a singer-songwriter from Santa Cruz, California. She is known for her poignant lyrics and distinctive melodies, with her piano ballads that effortlessly cut to the heart. Her voice has been described as both powerful and poetic. Elisabeth blends her coastal California folk-rock roots with the influences of Sweden’s signature country-pop style. Touring and recording with her bandmates from Sweden, they bring a unique sound that resonates with audiences across continents.

On the heels of her debut album, No Worries, Elisabeth was invited to tour with Meredith Brooks (best known for her hit song "Bitch") across Europe and the U.S., and also joined the MP3.COM Technology Tour with headliners Goo Goo Dolls and Tonic. Over the years, Elisabeth has solidified her reputation as a seasoned artist, collaborating with Swedish producer Amir Aly on several projects, including Roll With the Flow (2003), the Elisabeth Carlisle EP (2011), and the single "Beyond These Walls" (2018). 

In the fall of 2023, Elisabeth released two new singles with producer Amir Aly, “Never Let Go” and “The Great Divide,” featuring a musical contribution from Eric Bazilian on mandolin (of The Hooters and songwriter for Joan Osborne’s hit song “One of Us.”) “Never Let Go” debuted on Sweden’s P4 Radio and stayed there for six months. Both singles also received steady airplay on California's Central Coast KPIG and KBCZ Radio. 

The band followed the releases with their Copper Trail Tour, which took them through Montana, Utah, and California in 2023, followed by a Spring 2024 tour in Sweden.

The band will be on their Sea Glass Tour going through Montana-Washington-Oregon-California in September 2025, with their new single "In The Wake Of You" set to release in August. 

Elisabeth Carlisle music can be found on Spotify, iTunes, iHeartRadio and Amazon Music. She is often paired on playlists with artists such as Cowboy Junkies, Sheryl Crow and Lucinda Williams.
