ELYSÉ AND NUEVO RETRO is a genre-blending project redefining The New Vintage — merging blues-rooted guitar work, commanding, soulful vocals, and high-energy, dance-forward grooves into a cohesive, modern sound.

Elysé and Nuevo Retro are currently in production with their first studio album. Led by vocalist Elysé, whose low grit and soulful rasp anchor the project’s emotional core, Nuevo Retro balances raw feeling with sharp musical instincts. The work is shaped in close collaboration with Austin-based guitarist and producer Lance Keltner, whose decades of touring, recording, and production experience across blues, rock, and soul bring depth, clarity, and purpose to the sound.

The lineup is completed by longtime collaborators Mike Moyer (bass/vocals) and Cole Hanson (guitar/vocals), seasoned musicians with international touring and high-level studio experience. Together, the band delivers music that honors classic influences while firmly living in the present.
