Eli West Trio

Eli West is an American Roots musician from the Pacific Northwest. A multi-instrumental creator of sonic spaces, Eli’s former training as a designer informs a sound that is lush and organic – neither manicured nor overgrown. Evergreen timbres weave among pitches, rhythms and lyrics to become comfortable rooms into which listeners are invited. Eli’s reputation as a crafter of considered, toneful environments has fostered collaborations with Bill Frisell, Andrew Marlin, John Reishchman, Julie Fowlis, and many other pillars of the growing Americana movement.

"West paints a musical portrait that is steeped in history and tradition but at the same time is also refreshingly modern.”
- Rolling Stone

“West’s touch is light, nimble, and beautifully fluid, without a hard edge in sight, and whether he’s writing songs or instrumentals, the ideas are first-rate, combining the concision of old-time with the far-ranging improvisation of newgrass.”
- Acoustic Guitar Magazine

"Long appreciated from his collaborations with Cahalen Morrison, he finds a perfect nexus between old-time, bluegrass, and country, with only the sweetest tones and melodies folded into original songs.”
- Saving Country Music

"Music the World needs.”
- Tim O'Brien
