Bio

Eliza Tebo is a Wammie Award-winning, D.C.-based vocalist and songwriter working in multiple genres: pop, rock, folk and jazz.

Eliza’s self-titled debut jazz EP was released on April 29, 2022 on Strange Woman Records. Last year, she won the 2023 Wammie Award for Best Jazz Album for the record.

She is currently working with D.C. producers Sunday Coffee (Crystal Casino Band, Mystery Friends, Color Palette) on her debut pop album, dropping in 2024. She is also one-half of acoustic duo Jessica Upstairs, and a member of rock outfit Wandering Bird.

In December 2023, Eliza released a twin set of raw and emotional singles: a cover of Joni Mitchell’s “River” and an original piece, “Me and the Sun.” Both are her first releases on Wandering Bird Records.

With Howard University’s vocal jazz ensemble Afro Blue/Traces of Blue, Eliza performed on season three of NBC's "The Sing-Off," as well as at The Kennedy Center, Blues Alley, the B.B. King Blues Club, the Vice President’s official residence and on NPR.
