Elliot Maginot, whose real name is Gabriel Hélie-Harvey, began recording in 2014 and has released 3 albums and an EP. The artist from Montreal, who by his own admission is fond of melancholy, is also inspired by the peculiarities of everyday life, which he examines in his in silky prose on an ethereal indie pop background that could care less about labels. While a folk feel is prominent in his songs, Elliot Maginot’s music is a chameleon, where West African sounds exist beside classical influences and 1980s pop rock.
