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. Fine Life's 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." Their first release of 2025, "Moments," gained buzz and radio play from a plethora of media outlets, including Cage Riot, 90.1 KTUH and CCAN Radio in Toronto.
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.

Elise Noelani Levin is a Hawai’i-born singer, actress, and songwriter deeply inspired by vocal legends Billie Holiday, Judy Garland, and Janis Joplin. Driven by a lifelong passion for performance and composition, Elise creates work that delves into the profound—exploring social justice, mental health, philosophy, and life and death, as well as the elemental forces of nature, consciousness, and the essence of humanity.
A classically trained performer, Elise has studied at the American Conservatory Theater, Fordham University, Berklee School of Music, the University of Hawai’i, and Queens College. Having begun vocal training at age nine, she has mastered a diverse range of styles and genres across the musical spectrum.
On screen, Elise is known for her portrayal of Angela O’Hara on CBS’s Hawaii Five-0 and, most recently, her role as the "Friendly Neighbor" in the hit Amazon Prime series Fallout. Her theatrical credits include the co-starring role of Sarah in Slide (written by Caren Tackett) at the New York Musical Festival, and the existential rock opera Born Blue, also written by Tackett and directed by Anthony Rapp. Her stage work was recognized when she was awarded "Best Lead Actress in a Musical" for her performance as Wendla Bergman in Spring Awakening.
Elise released her first album in 2014, Anony-miss, featuring original ukulele-based songs, followed by her self-produced electronic album, Sunken Sun. Her first studio produced EP, Elysium, is available on all streaming platforms. When she isn't in the studio or on set, you can likely find her volunteering at a cat shelter, exploring the underwater world, or taking long walks through the city to quiet her ever-active mind.
