Xela Edna
My Data Cannot Rot on Bandcamp
Xela Edna is a multidisciplinary artist: singer, songwriter, composer, performer, producer, arranger, dancer, actress, artistic director, and stylist, born in Montreal (Tiohtiá:ke) in 2000.
Starting her musical career as Xela Edna in 2018, Edna has been creating an extraordinary artistic universe for over seven years. In close collaboration with Dominic Walther-Battista, blending electronic pop and experimental industrial punk, their artistic approach is characterized by a bold sonic exploration: textures, conceptualization, sound design, maximalism, and emotional exhibitionism.
Defined by synthesizers, modular synthesis, complex vocal processing, and raw, uninhibited bilingual songwriting, their work unites lightness and depth, as well as reflection and dance floor culture, to offer a hybrid sensory experience. Their world is intriguing, somber, and unsettling, reflecting both their state of mind and their view on contemporary society.
On stage, Edna embodies a powerful, liberating, and unrestrained presence, a psychological and physical experience that draws us into their distinct multidisciplinary universe, incorporating music, poetry, dance, visual art, and theater.
After releasing three EPs between 2019 and 2021 and a multitude of singles and collaborations with artists from the Montreal scene between 2021 and 2025, Xela Edna released her highly anticipated debut album on March 20th 2026.
