About

Soleil Launière is a force of nature, blending ancestral traditions with avant-garde artistry to create a sound that is as haunting as it is healing. A multidisciplinary artist of Kanien’kehá:ka (Mohawk) and Québécois heritage, Launière’s music is a tapestry of Indigenous rhythms, ethereal vocals, and experimental electronics. Drawing from her roots in the Kahnawake community, her work transcends genre, weaving together elements of folk, ambient, and contemporary Indigenous music to craft a sonic landscape that feels both ancient and futuristic. Launière’s career has been marked by a fearless exploration of identity and culture. Her breakthrough came with the release of her debut EP, which garnered critical acclaim for its raw emotional depth and innovative soundscapes. Since then, she has become a leading voice in the Indigenous music renaissance, using her platform to amplify stories of resilience and reclamation. Her collaborations with artists like Jeremy Dutcher and Tanya Tagaq have further cemented her reputation as a boundary-pushing visionary. Beyond music, Launière is a celebrated performer and visual artist, often integrating dance and multimedia into her live shows. Her recent projects include a highly anticipated album that delves deeper into her cultural heritage, as well as a series of performances at international festivals. Soleil Launière is not just an artist—she is a storyteller, a healer, and a beacon of Indigenous futurism.
