Concert Review: Eloise Leaves Fans in ‘Wanderlust,’ Teases Her Yet-to-Be-released Album, and Performs Her ‘Meanest Song Yet’
Eloise isnāt at The Plaza anymore. Sheās traveling to Los Angeles, San Fransisco, Washington D.C., and, most recently, Brooklyn, New York. Hereās Showbiz Cheat Sheetās review (and recap) of Eloiseās final concert along her 2022 North American tour.
Eloise released āSomewhere In-Betweenā in 2021

Situated on the same independent label as Bruno Major (with some songs produced by the āEasilyā artist), Eloise envokes a jazzy, nostalgic, almost wistful sound in her original music. Thatās especially true of the 2021 release Somewhere In-Between.
āAt long last, my mini-album Somewhere In-Between is out in the world for you all to listen to it,ā Eloise tweeted. āI poured my heart and soul into writing and singing these songs as did @MrBrunoMajor into the production. I canāt thank you all enough for your undying support and love.ā
She even caught the attention of Jacob Collier, a musician known for his complex, rule-breaking arrangements. Eloiseās biggest draw is her lyrics ā honest, emotional, and even romantic. Her music feels like falling in love, even if she claims they come from a place of misery.
Eloise performed new songs āTherapistā and āPretendā at Elsewhere in New York
Especially live, her voice is clear and captivating. This October, she headlined a concert at Elsewhere in Brooklyn, New York, highlighting her surprise single and performing tracks from her yet-to-be-released album.Ā
That includes the āmeanest song sheās ever written,ā titled āTherapist,ā even though she reassured the audience she was a nice person. She intermittently paused to discuss the meaning behind songs, sharing the reason why āTrick of the Moonā is so short ā and still connects with so many listeners.Ā
āIn 2018 I put out my first EP and I was 18 and Iād written those, basically, four songs, and they were the songs you heard,ā Eloise told the audience. āAnd I spent a really long time after that not being able to write a thing and convincing myself that that was it. My songwriting days were over.āĀ
āI think that part of the reason I didnāt write was that I was very happy,ā she continued. āIf any of you are songwriters you know, itās very hard to write when youāre happyā¦ I managed to squeeze out some misery.ā
Added props to Eloise for choosing an opener to be appreciated by musicians. Tiny Habits mentioned they attend Berklee College of Music and it absolutely showed with perfectly practiced harmonies and a cover of āLandslideā by Fleetwood Mac ā a smart choice considering their vocal style.Ā
Although this headlining show was one of her final concerts of 2022, Eloise is an artist to watch in the indie scene, carving a unique space with each original song.Ā
Eloise released songs āSubside,ā āYou, Dear,ā and recently, āPretendā
Even with a small discography, Eloiseās storytelling resulted in millions of Spotify streams. One of her most popular releases, āLeft Side,ā details a haunting breakup ā even if the narrator hasnāt moved on just yet.
āBut someday I will heal, Iāll grow another heart,ā Eloise sings. āAnd I guess until then, Iāll endure the falling apart / Iāll learn to love the quiet and forget what was said / And maybe one day Iāll return to the left side of my bed / Where lies the blood I bled, where I lost my head, to you.ā
Earlier this October, the songwriter released āPretend.ā To learn more about Eloiseās future projects, fans can visit her website.
