Driven by a patient devotion to sonic afterlife, memory, and material curiosity, Kara-Lis Coverdale’s dynamic work occupies a new plane built upon histories of electronic music, symphonic writing, and sacred musics with a unique spectral sensitivity. A classically trained pianist and composer with the Royal Conservatory of Music with Estonian Heritage, she has also worked as organist and music director at several churches across Canada since age 13. Her breakout album AFTERTOUCHES (2015), a series of narrative-rich experimental miniatures, was named a top album of the year by The Wire, NPR and more. GRAFTS (2017), is a set of three pieces in long-form featuring the composer’s distinct approach to digital-based tuning systems, earning even greater critical acclaim.
After an 8 year hiatus of releasing solo recordings, she returned in 2025 with a trilogy of full-length releases she wrote, performed, recorded, produced, and engineered herself: FROM WHERE YOU CAME, A SERIES OF ACTIONS IN A SPHERE OF FOREVER, and CHANGES IN AIR, presenting a singular & uncompromisingly feminine body of work that redefines the possibilities of music and sound and the power of authorship.
Kara-Lis designs and builds instruments, has created original works for Hamilton Philharmonic Orchestra, the Krakow Sinfonietta, Vanemuine Theatre, The Amsterdam Cello Quartet +, and writes for film. She is currently on World Tour.
