ELOI

Revealed in 2022 with her cover of JTM de ouf, ELOI has established herself as one of the rising figures of the French alternative scene. Two EPs—Acedia (2020) and Pyrale (2022)—affirm her innovative production style and songwriting talent.

In 2023, ELOI released her first album, Dernier Orage. After braving the flames under gabber kicks, she now brings guitars to the forefront in a debut album that fiercely stirs up her teenage storms and looks beyond the gloom. Delving into her hazy memories, ELOI lets euphoric and painful recollections surface. Dernier Orage is defended both visually and on stage as a call to the electricity of raw emotions, embracing a glam-punk aesthetic—particularly evident in the music video for Call Me, directed by Alexis Langlois.

In 2023, she filled La Cigale. Then, in 2024, she embarks on a tour across France, Belgium, and Switzerland, playing at legendary festivals such as Les Vieilles Charrues, Les Eurockéennes, and Live at Montreux. Her album Dernier Orage earns her a nomination in the selection of the 10 albums for the 2024 Prix Joséphine. A self-taught producer and composer, ELOI hones her influences and fully embraces her electro heritage. She is set to release a new EP in 2025.
