Elizabeth Cormier is an emerging jazz singer, composer, lyricist, and vocal pedagogue based in Montréal. Originally from a small village in northern Quebec, she followed the call of music to the metropolis six years ago. Since then, her warm and deep tone has taken her onto vibrant stages — from Maison de la Culture Janine-Sutto to the Centaur Theater, from Upstairs Jazz Bar & Grill to the Montreal Art Center, from Salon Badin to the Barbossa Club, from Maison de la Culture Villebon to Mai/son — and into major festivals such as the Montreal International Jazz Festival, Festi Jazz de Mont-Tremblant, Toronto Undergraduate Jazz Festival and Festival de la Quinzaine Jazz. 

Through her studies in jazz performance at McGill University, she has studied under the wings of exceptional singers such as Camille Thurman, Ranee Lee, and Sophie Day as well as being coached by renowned musicians including Darrell Green, Carlos Jimenez, Marianne Trudel, Jim Doxas, Fraser Hollins, Greg Amirault, among others.  

Greatly influenced by Sarah Vaughan, Carmen McRae and Anita O’Day, Elizabeth’s voice can be described as dynamic with a warm and deep tone. Deeply rooted in the jazz tradition, she brings with her voice a playfulness towards rhythm and phrasing while performing.
