Fine Life is a musical duo made up of Elise Levin and Kritty Kesoglides. Yielding an authentic and unique sound, Fine Life combines alternative, indie rock and electronic elements with a vibrant, yet pensive songwriting approach. Their music often acknowledges the layered complexities of life and encourages introspection, while their live shows are dynamic and composed of exciting electronic soundscapes, synergetic live drumming and a demanding powerhouse vocal performance. Their discography thus far is an eclectic collection. It showcases various genres and influences, while retaining the common denominator of immersive songwriting, whether it be their electronic forward debut EP, Echoes, dream pop single, "Aquamarine" or their darker rock power ballad, "First Degree Murder."
Fine Life curates many shows throughout NYC, but a huge focus of their events are fundraisers for non profit organizations, mainly specializing in animal conservation. They have raised $10,000 for the Shark Research Institute, Maui Humane Society, Astoria Cat Rescue, NYC Health + Hospitals, The Children's Rescue Fund, New York Bee Sanctuary, Animal Care Centers NYC, Saint Joe's Food Kitchen, and Rosegate Furever Home. They are in the process of establishing The Fine Life Foundation as a NGO, so they can continue their work in creating music for the greater good.
