I've seen Eljiah perform many times. His voice alone can shift the energy in the room. He is an incredible musician and I could not recommend him more!!

There are two kinds of singer-songwriters: people that can sing, and people that have a VOICE. You can immediately tell that Elijah is in the latter category when performing, the energy and passion he puts into music is incredibly impressive. There is a true power behind his voice and lyricism, with songwriting to back up the palpable strength of his sound.

One More Light by Linkin Park is the song helping me grieve the loss of my friend.
Elijah Blake sang a cover and created a music video as a living memorial.
I am eternally thankful and appreciative of Elijah Blake Music ; a phenomenal musician; most importantly, a kind and caring person.
His tribute song and music video is on his YouTube Channel: https://youtube.com/@TheRealElijahBlake

Elijah has been a friend for a long time, he recently sang and wrote lyrics for one of my songs titled “No One Hears The Monkey”
On top of being a great singer and lyricist he’s also a multi-instrumentalist with many talents. He can play guitar, drums, and bass quite well… you can hear his multi-talent in his band The Lower Falls.
But let me not forget his solo career as an outlaw country style acoustic guitarist/singer-songwriter… he draws many crowds in the rural communities where he plays gigs, garnering a real connection from the crowd.
From Grunge Rock to Outlaw Country, he can do it all! Book Elijah

When you hear Elijah sing you can hear his soul and heart combine and it’s extremely healing and powerful to witness this. His voice is timeless and far beyond his years. You can feel the emotion and passion in his voice and his lyrics are absolute poetry. When I’m having a hard time I listen to his songs and they reassure me that everything will be okay because I feel like his music is a very old, dear friend. If you want to hear a true singer/songwriter who is also a brilliant multi instrumentalist, (vocals, drums, guitar, bass, piano, harmonica, banjo or whatever else he can get his hands on) you gotta hear him. He touches people’s hearts and lifts up their souls. He channels the greats but his sound is unique and special. I couldn’t recommend him more and will definitely hire him again for a future event.

If you’ve never been serenaded by Elijah Blake, you’re truly missing out. His ability to play guitar is amazing. His vocals are real and raw. His lyrics are simply one of a kind. It doesn’t stop at his musical talent either. He’s a great person too. Kind, caring, funny, and intelligent. I have no doubt in my mind that you’ll someday see this name amongst grunge artists similar to nirvana and Pearl Jam ;) Keep that in mind when booking Elijah Blake for your next event!!

It was a pleasure working with Elijah for my annual festival I throw every year. He was very respectful and very considerate and made an effort to be exactly what we needed and you can tell! He even stayed longer than we hired him for and played for us around the fire! What a good time and great guy! 100% recommend if you need any sort of musician for anything. Thanks again!

I saw Elijah play the guitar and sing, at Pizzario, in Hillsboro OR. He is an incredibly gifted musician/singer/songwriter. By watching and listening to him, I knew that he is very passionate about music, you could feel it coming from his soul.
