Elise Testone began performing at age 6 when she was singled out by her classmates to sing a solo because she was the only one who could sing the notes. Testone’s singing has been regarded as very natural and rhythmical. An article written about Testone states, “The heartfelt emphasis she puts into every note, jumping effortlessly between octaves, truly makes every word her own.”-Stratton Lawrence, Charleston City Paper. She has been in the company of such musicians as Steve Bailey, Sam Broussard and Steve Riley, and has opened for Nappy Roots, Snoop Dogg, and Kevin Costner.
Elise Testone is available as a duo and also sings locally with Slanguage and The Freeloaders, and in Columbia with Justin Smith and the Folk Hop-Band; each producing original music.
