Elizabeth Ayoub

Elizabeth Ayoub is both a poet and a musician.  'Music is that magical air that lives in our space. It knows no boundaries, carries no stigmas. It is unconditional love expressed through one's energy. And like energy, music can neither be created nor destroyed - it is simply transformed, from one soul to the other. May we all be the conduits of its magic.'

With a fresh, coming-of-age sensitivity, Elizabeth Ayoub graces the stage by blending the traditional with the contemporary, the East with the West. The youngest of seven siblings, her Lebanese immigrant parents fled to Venezuela before the civil war, in search for a promising future. It was in Venezuela where Elizabeth was thrust into an environment where three different languages were freely spoken and where her musical influences ranged from Koranic verse and Fairuz, to Simon & Garfunkel and Barbra Streisand.

A songstress at heart – as she is also a trained, professional actress -- her musical influences span across decades and cultures, enriching both her music and lyrics with heartfelt and haunting melodies and rhythms. From the yearning that springs from a traditional Arabic song, to that of a country-blues ballad, and an Arab-infused Cuban son, Elizabeth Ayoub transports you sweetly to and fro, through a musical journey.

La música es el aire mágico que vive a nuestro alrededor. No conoce fronteras, ni tiene estigmas. Es amor incondicional, expresado a través de energía. Y como la energía, la música no se crea ni si destruye -simplemente se transforma, de un alma a la otra.
Ojala y seamos todos conductos de su magia.
- Elizabeth Ayoub

Con una fresca y madura sensibilidad, Elizabeth Ayoub llega al escenario, mezclando lo tradicional con lo contemporáneo, el Oriente con el Occidente. La menor de seis hermanos y hermanas, sus padres Libaneses emigraron a Venezuela antes de la Guerra civil, buscando un futuro prometedor. Fue en Venezuela donde Elizabeth fue expuesta a un ambiente donde tres lenguajes se hablaban libremente y donde sus influencias musicales abarcaron una gama de estrellas y géneros – desde versos del Corán y Fairuz, a Simon & Garfunkel y Barbra Streisand.

Tal como una fiel cantaora -- ya que también es actriz profesional – sus influencias musicales abarcan décadas y culturas, enrequiciendo tanto su música como su lírica, con melodías y ritmos afectuosos y misteriosos a la vez. Desde el anhelo que florece de una canción tradicional Árabe, a una balada de country-blues, y un son Cubano envuelto en matices Árabes, Elizabeth Ayoub lo transporta a uno dulcemente a través de un viaje musical.
