Eli Waltz / us / folk blues

Eli Waltz is a folk troubadour who splits his time between Washington, D.C., and Geneva, Switzerland. Travel and music are inextricably linked for him. He busked in the streets of Medellin, Tel-Aviv, and Dali, China, and lived and performed in Beijing. His sound draws inspiration from traditional American folk music, blues and traditional Chinese folk music. Eli incorporates a fingerpicking style modeled on Bob Dylan and Townes Van Zandt, a slide guitar style inspired by the ancient Chinese instrument Guqin, and he draws upon the vocal stylings of Ray Lamontagne and John Lee Hooker.
