About Elise
Elise Kristine catapulted into the public eye when her huge social media following caught the eye of American Idol. Breaking into the Top 24 on Season 21, Elise’s “vocal acrobatics” earned her the title of “Mighty Mouse” from Katy Perry, who declared the 19-year-old “The next big thing.” Elise isn’t a stranger to the stage, making her debut at the tender age of three. Her training in musical theatre and opera now translates seamlessly into pop, jazz, soul, and R&B, where she lends her bell-like tone and “glass-shattering” high notes to her original compositions plus the greatest songs from yesterday and today. In 2025, watch for Elise Kristine in a new singing series on Netflix!
