Artist Description
Legendary cult heroes Elysian Fields have always travelled in mysterious waters. Led by the enigmatic New York co-composers Jennifer Charles (vocals) and Oren Bloedow (guitar), the music born of their collaboration is not easy to categorize. They carry a torch for nature, sex, love, the cycle of death and rebirth, and the sounds of folk and jazz ballads, no wave and classical music, seamlessly interwoven into a style that is at once languorously romantic and tough. TimoutNY writes "the voice and presence of Jennifer Charles are so powerful that almost any criticism falls flat," and Oren has been called a "guitar god" by the Village Voice.Latest Comment

I was introduced to Elysian Fields a few months ago by a mermaid of a girl I had just met. She played "Black Acres" for me and I was absolutely blown away... It's lush dreamscape of sound, siren call of Jennifer's vocals and a gorgeous imagery made Elysian Fields one of my absolute favorite bands.
Came here because their website said they play at Joe's Pub on Oct 29th, but I don't see that here on their calendar.
I'd love to book EF in New Orleans, by the way. Just let me know.
