Elisa at Live 8

Elisa Toffoli, or Elisa, is considered one of the most beautiful and skillful voices of Italian music. She sings in several musical genres that go from rock, to the blues, soul and ambient.

Early Life
Born in Monfalcone, Gorizia, Italy on 19 December 1977, since childhood expressed a great artistic ability: dancing, painting, reciting and writing stories. Elisa's love for art grew with poems of Rudyard Kipling and the lyrics of Jim Morrison, but the best of Elisa's talent is expressed in music. At the age of 11 she wrote her first lyrics and melody.

When she was 17 Elisa signed with Sugar. When she was 18 she left for Berkeley, where with Corrado Rustici (producer of Whitney Houston, Aretha Franklin, Francesco De Gregori, Claudio Baglioni) she worked on the songs of the album Pipes and Flowers.

In May 1997 Elisa released the first single, Sleeping in Your Hand. On 22 September Pipes and Flowers, produced by Corrado Rustici, it soon went Triple Platinum in Italy. Elisa is author of all lyrics, written in English, and of the melodies.

The First Awards
Three singles from Pipes and Flowers were released: Sleeping in your hand, Labyrinth and A Feast for Me. For these just before 1998 Elisa won the Targa Tenco (Tenco Plate), and the Premio Italiano della Musica (Italian Musical Award). Elisa performed excellently live at the Imola Heineken Jammin Festival and as the special guest in the European tour of Eros Ramazzotti. In October she recorded the single Cure Me, produced by Darren Allison (Skunk Anansie, Spiritualized), which was on the re-release of Pipes and Flowers.

Then, on 5 May 2000, released the album Asile's World (Asile being Elisa written backwards), anticipated from the single The Gift. The album was produced Darren Allison, Howie B (U2, Bjork), Roberto Vernetti, Mauro Malavasi and Leo Z. Two other singles were released from this album: Happiness Is Home and title-track Asile's World.
