She has earned praise from Rolling Stone and CBC, with over 3 million streams, as well as Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award recipient, Tom Paxton. Geneviève has performed more than 100 concerts in Canada and the United States in the last few years and we are thrilled to bring her to New York City for the first time. One of the most talented duos to take stage in NYC," The Whispering Tree is singer/songwriter Eleanor Kleiner and multi-instrumentalist Elie Brangbour. Together, they craft richly immersive folk brimming with evocative lyrics, soaring vocals and a panoramic musicality. Their latest release, Invisible Forces debuted at #1 on the International Folk DJ charts and explores a deeply personal and political landscape, with themes of hope, despair and social consciousness.
