About this Article

As an opera student at McGill University in Montreal, Mary Alouette developed an interest that didn't necessarily correspond to her studies: electronic music. It took moving to Brooklyn and embarking on a career as a gypsy jazz singer to finally bring electronica into the mix in the form of a new EP, "The Lark." "Growing up doing opera, especially in Montreal, I felt like I could never reconcile the two," Alouette says, "but now they're all blending and they don't feel so segmented."
