Featuring Performances by
Elise Wunder-songwriter
Elise Wunder is a Colorado born songstress blessed with a truly rare voice that distills emotion into song. She has spent years investing, studying, and crafting this instrument. It's a cannon and a paintbrush; a voice of oak and leather with a tone that’s at once comforting, dynamic, and built on a solid stone foundation with a range that listeners don’t forget.
Her songwriting and style are rich and heavy in a way that does not suggest world weariness, so much as it does wisdom and an old soul. Elise is a world traveler who is inspired by experience and culture. Elise uses her rich experiences to take listeners on a journey through the passionate embrace of love and the hollow ache of solitude, while finding magic in the small moments of day to day living.

L Casper x The LuneAtics- Full Band
L. Casper & the LuneAtics are gearing up to release a new series of singles—beginning December 5 with a full-band launch performance. Casper’s music fuses intricate polyrhythms, lush arpeggios, and a blend of soulful grit and avant-pop vocals reminiscent of Norah Jones meets Björk. Drawing from rock, jazz, blues, electronica, and punk, her sound is unapologetically original—raw, poetic, and rhythmically bold. Featuring multi-instrumentalists from LuneAseas, the band performs in configurations from intimate duos to lush sextets, gracing stages across Colorado from The Tabor Opera House to FoCoMx and The Mercury Café.

Intimate. Inspiring. Unfiltered.
The LuneAtics an intimate evening of creativity, connection, and conversation. This gathering offers a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the process of making art, featuring live music, movement, theatre, and open dialogue with the artists who bring it all to life. Rooted in the spirit of the historic Parisian salons of the 17th and 18th centuries—where artists and philosophers gathered to exchange ideas—The Muse Sessions revives this tradition for today’s creative community. Inspired by our contemporaries and influences Theatre Artibus and Dimensions Dance. It’s a space for dreamers, doers, and lovers of the arts to unwind, connect, and be inspired.

Behind every show is a story.
Behind every artist, a muse.
The Muse Sessions are more than a songwriters’ circle—they’re an invitation to step inside the artist’s world. Each salon blends live music, movement, and conversation in an intimate setting where creativity unfolds in real time. Through storytelling and performance, musicians share not only their songs but the inspiration, struggles, and muses that shape them. It’s a space for connection and curiosity—a place where audiences can listen deeply, ask questions, and experience the spark behind the art.
