Eli Teplin

Eli Teplin is a classically trained pianist, guitarist, songwriter and pop artist, who began as a local performer in Nashville and made his way to Los Angeles after being discovered and signed by Quincy Jones.
The music that caught the attention of Mr. Jones and resulted in Eli’s signing to Quincy Jones’ international roster of musicians, also landed Eli a spot on BMG's roster of charttopping songwriters. Eli is currently writing with numerous artists – including Meghan Trainor,
Leona Lewis, and Tobias Jesso Jr. (Niall Horan, Adele, Sia, John Legend).

With influences such as John Mayer, Brian Wilson, Bruce Hornsby and Billy Joel, Eli chases his own style of pop music, while placing an emphasis on his classical foundations. As a pianist and guitarist, Eli studied music in Boston at the New England Conservatory and later
moved to Nashville to further his education at Vanderbilt University. His professors at the university recognized his high level of musicality in songwriting and believed in Eli’s extraordinary talents to pursue music. They were confident a broader audience would one day hear his songs.

Eli’s artistry and persistent work ethic would prove his professors right. Eli’s strong belief in the value of connecting with his audience has quickly garnered him a fan base of over 10,000 followers on Periscope as a result of the “in-home concerts” he hosts for viewers
worldwide. His synesthesia, which allows him to see colors while playing certain keys, affords him the ability to paint pictures with his music and create an enchanting escape for listeners.
