ELI (also known as Elizabeth Pham) is a twenty-three year old artist native to Peoria, IL. While her sound is grounded in Alternative R&B and Soul, with inspirations and covers from UMI, Orion Sun, H.E.R., Erykah Badu, and Cleo Sol, she enjoys performing and listening to a variety of genres from Dreampop to Hip-Hop and Classic Rock (and Roll).

You may have seen her performing at the James for APACC’s 20th anniversary/Asian Pacific American Heritage Month show alongside Iowa City legends Pictoria Vark and mars hojilla; the IMU Ballroom for the Asian American Student Union’s graduation banquet, or at the Iowa City Flea Market!

When she isn’t performing, ELI can be found skating around the midwest, rock climbing, or hanging out with her grandma.
