As a solo performer, Eli uses a loop pedal to bring a fuller sound to the show and plays a variety of covers and originals from all types of musical genres. Any genre suggestions or song requests are welcome and encouraged.
As a duo, Eli performs with an acoustic drummer to keep the rhythm going and can really provide that extra spark to make your event fun and memorable.
As a trio and full band, Eli is able to provide the full American roots experience with classic and modern covers with a family band feel. Disclaimer, dancing, smiling, hand clapping, and yee-hawing might occur.
Now based in Washington DC, Eli Lev has been traveling the globe for two decades and weaving his experiences into fresh folk anthems of personal empowerment, natural awareness, and finding one's place in the world.
Rooted in the Americana tradition, Eli's influences range from the flamenco progressions of Andalusia, Spain, enchanting minor chords from Israel and the Middle East, and powerful melodies from the southwestern United States. His songwriting showcases authentic lyrics and an honest style that comes straight from the heart and welcomes the listener to participate in the music.
Eli has performed all over the United States from Bloomington, Indiana to the deserts of Burning Man in Black Rock City, Nevada; from the artistic enclaves of Portland, Oregon to the streets of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; and most recently the Kennedy Center's Millennium Stage in Washington, DC.
As a solo singer-songwriter, the instruments Eli integrates into his performances are wide ranging and eclectic – acoustic guitar, mandolin, native flute, harmonica, keyboard, melodica, and a host of beat boxing and other percussive styles; and once he’s got his loop pedal locked in, it’s like listening to the sound of a full band.
In Washington DC, he's been the kickoff performer at the Music on the Mall Festival, was featured at the Kennedy Center Millennium Stage with the METRO Performs series, and played at the US Capitol building supporting DC Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton. Eli has also been hard at work performing at hundreds of venues throughout the Washington DC, Maryland, and northern Virginia area in taverns, restaurants, wineries, community events, art exhibits, and house shows.
With a style that fits and adapts to every type of occasion, he is one of the premier performers in the DMV area and is an exceptional choice for your next live music event.
PA and all equipment is included in the show. As long as you've got an electrical outlet we'll be just fine.
