When Emaline Delapaix & The Delistocracy perform, you’ll have fun. You might laugh so hard, you’ll fall off your seat, and then be compelled to write a poem about world poverty, all in one set. Emaline’s songs are about everything from dodgy jobs, including a paid offer to spank a man for £100 an hour, to an artist’s exotic outlook on life, travel, loss, love, hard hitting world issues and secret love affairs between musicians.
Emaline began her career in sun baked Australia, touring cities and the Aussie outback. since then, she's taken her swag of songs to Europe, North America, and has even traveled to Vietnam. Through her travel and experiences, Emaline's music has grown with her, to incorporate her thoughtful and sometimes humourous perspective into an enchanting eclectic style, all of her very own. Whether she’s singing a lilting lullaby about a London love affair, a funky folk song with roots flavours, a brassy jazz number, some lazy cabaret, a clever pop song, or rocking out Latin-style, Emaline will make you feel something. And she might even get you dancing.
Emaline's band of merry players called "The Delistocracy" includes four hand picked female musicians chosen for their talent, dedication to hard work, colourful sense of humour, similar ideals and a much needed ability to deal with having to listen to pre 2001 Robbie Williams hits while trapped in a car together on very long tours. The band includes such instruments as viola, violin, percussion/kit, acoustic guitar, piano, vocal harmonies and on special occasions celtic harp and trumpet. Emaline and band also have the ability to play quietly when asked nicely.
Since beginning in 2001, Emaline has shared the stage with such fine performers such as Garnet Rogers, David Francey, Nizlopi, Tanglefoot, Kris Demeanor, Plaid Tongued Devils, Jonatha Brooke, Little Feat, Juan Carranza, Ember Swift, & many more, showing her musical diversity and ability to play at many types of events.
Emaline has performed at many types of venues over the last five years including cafes, restaurants, art galleries, house concerts and more but really relishes discovering new alternative live music venues and some of the most interesting have included;
A Tuxedo Shop in NH USA, an Intentional Community in Nelson BC, An Organic Farm & Monkey Sanctuary in Cornwall England, an Eco Community in Steyerberg Germany, the Ferry Greeting Terminal in Prince Rupert BC, Lesbian Bed & Breakfast in NH USA, a Barn Concert in Grand Forks BC and a Burlesque Bar in Brooklyn USA.
Along with being a talented musician, Emaline is also a poet and photographer with art available for exhibiting at festivals, venues and events. Emaline and her band members are also available to host workshops for artists on "how to book your own tour", "song writing" and related topics.
