Giving hope to others through song - Eliz

---

Eliz is a singer, songwriter, and producer from Norway who is now based in Liverpool, UK, as she studies for her master's degree in Music Management at the Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts. 

Eliz began her creative endeavors as a child, surrounded by music from her parents, while also enjoying drawing and writing short stories. As a child, she was too shy at first to sing in front of others and would practice in her bedroom. It was not until her performance at her primary school graduation that people finally heard her. From this, she caught the bug for performing and started taking her music seriously as a career. 

Her music consists of catchy vocal hooks combined with dramatic changes in vocals and instrumentation, demanding listeners’ attention and putting her raw emotions into the song at full force. Eliz’s discography takes the indie pop genre and fuses it with elements of a cinematic soundtrack, creating a distinctive and unique sound that is instantly recognizable—a combination of her inspirations such as Loreen, Bring Me the Horizon, and others. 

Her latest single, Walk, which came out on 31st January 2025 and was co-produced with a producer from her home in Norway, embodies this sentiment entirely. Eliz explains the meaning behind the track: “That single is about walking away from situations that don’t benefit you anymore and feeling guilty about that. Being in a position where you feel like you have to choose to follow your heart or hurt people.” 

Eliz describes how her music encompasses the life lessons she learns daily, using the songwriting process to express her feelings and emotions in a non-judgmental space, giving hope to others by addressing situations that might make people uncomfortable to speak about openly. 

Eliz teased her next single, Change, which will be released this March. It is about the concept of having to change to find love: “It's about when I first fell in love and felt like I didn’t deserve love. That I had to be perfect before I could be in love.” 

Reflecting on her Scandinavian roots, Eliz expresses how, once she moved away from her hometown, she was able to develop as an artist more freely. She says, “Liverpool has a very good scene for indie pop. Norway has a scene, but it’s a little smaller. I feel like indie is bigger here in Liverpool.” 

We cannot wait to hear Eliz’s highly anticipated new single, Change, when it is released this March, and we are excited to see what is on the horizon for the artist. To listen to Eliz’s work, you can find her on all major streaming platforms and follow her journey via her social media platforms.
