Eli Orion

Eli Orion is a wild horse, a wide-angle sunrise over a field, and a deific lightning strike; "a whirlwind of impressive production, self-aware narratives, and hooks that [demand] festivals. [...] The scope of the project and its execution speak to the skill that Orion has as an artist, and as long as this artist's creative engine gets enough fuel, subsequent projects are something for which one should be excited." - Logan Lamers, fsm

An experienced multi-instrumentalist, composer, and producer, Eli Orion explores a diverse palette of sonic possibilities. There's a lot to listen for in his recordings—lush string sections, blown-out 808s, fingerstyle guitar… Eli asks a lot of questions. He is both humorously sardonic and intimately sincere, with lyrics often introspective but sometimes plainly fun. Influences and inspirations include Bon Iver, The 1975, Big Thief, The Microphones, and gabby start.
