LATEST RELEASE

“All I need is a cabin in the woods with a piano,” has been Eliot Eidelman’s refrain since experiencing a creative outburst at an artist residency in the Mojave that spawned the material for his first solo album back in 2014. Nearly a decade and seven releases later, his dream for Thoreauvian artistic solitude came true when he settled into a tiny house trailer in a remote canyon outside of Ojai, California, with just enough room to fit a Baldwin upright. Silhouette is the first album since the radical lifestyle shift toward complete devotion to his art. “I stopped going out, drinking and smoking, and just got into a flow where I’m always creating and honing my sound.”

In the fall of 2023 Eliot reconvened with longtime collaborator Evan Backer of Wand for a series of recording sessions that yielded dozens of tracks covering Eliot’s time as a live-in graveyard shift manager of a rock’n’roll hotel in Atlanta, his years as a musical tour guide of historic New Orleans, and his current chapter as a hermitic canyon creature. Silhouette is the first collection from these sessions to see the light of day, featuring a distinctive classic Americana palette soaked in Tyler Nuffer’s pedal steel and a playful, rebellious attitude that has long been a trademark of Eliot’s lyrical style, now more refreshing than ever.
