Bio / Background
Singer, Guitarist, multi-instrumentalist Elie Massias is based in New York City and has performed extensively in Europe, North America, and Israel.
Elie won top 15 of the U.S. North East at the 2006 'Independent Music Worldseries' and will be featured on Discmakers 'North East Heavy Hitters" compilation CD.
John Anders of DownBeat Magazine writes " Elie's guitar textures and effects recall stylists as diverse as Bill Frisell, John Abercrombie and Bern Nix."
Stuart Broomer of Cadence Magazine writes: "Massias has a command of the guitar that extends from the fingerboard to the amplifier, from the lightest acoustic play to R&B."
Pat Arena of New Yorks Vice Magazine writes: "Elie Massias creates music that is at once exotic and very cosmopolitan. It gently pulses with the rhythms of the Middle East, the harmonies of Brazil and Beatles-like melodies. His voice warms and seduces with its sweet timbre. Lyrically, Elie creates poetic portraits of landscapes both imaginary and earthly.
↓ more ↓World in Fiction is a bright and beautiful work from a unique artist. "
On his first CD, World in Fiction , Elie's diverse influences and unique background become evident. "Even though i am known as a Jazz Guitarist, my first love was singing and playing in the singer/songwriter tradition, and because of my love and dedication to Jazz and improvised music my songs often transcend stylistic boundaries."
In 1994 Elie left Boston and moved to New York. "It was a move I needed to make. New York has so much to offer, I feel I've really found myself here as a musician."
