Eliza Tebo is an award-winning D.C.-based vocalist and songwriter performing jazz, folk, rock and pop. Her debut jazz EP took home Best Jazz Album at the 2023 Wammie Awards. She is available for hire at corporate events, weddings and other soirees.

Eliza is an alum of Howard University, earning a master’s of music education in 2010. With Howard’s Afro Blue/Traces of Blue, she performed on NBC's "The Sing-Off" and NPR, as well as at The Kennedy Center, Blues Alley, the B.B. King Blues Club (NY), the Vice President’s official residence, and venues in Bermuda and Jamaica.

In 2024, Eliza released jazz single “A Child is Born.” The record is a follow up to her raw and emotional singles from 2023: a cover of Joni Mitchell’s “River” and original folk piece “Me and the Sun.”

Eliza has appeared in multiple musicals in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic, including “West Side Story” (Consuela), “A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum” (Vibrata), “Chicago” (Mona) and “42nd Street.”

She is also a vocalist and keyboardist for D.C. rock outfit Wandering Bird. And her first pop project, Gemma Sky, is due out this year.
