Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Cleanup bare URLs Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Infobox musical artist Eli Lieb Шаблон:IPAc-en is an independent American pop singer-songwriter from Fairfield, Iowa. In 2014, Lieb resided in Los Angeles, where he was working on his second album.[1]
History
At twenty, Lieb left his hometown of Fairfield, Iowa, to pursue music professionally in New York City. In addition to attending classes at The New School and at Pepperdine University, Lieb began singing at local open mic sessions, where he was introduced to Jonathan Daniel of Crush Management.[2] The two began meeting with record labels, and Lieb began collaborating with other songwriters.[2] During this period, Lieb's father died; he abruptly ceased his music career and moved back to Fairfield.[2] For more than three years, he did not play or write a song.[2]
2009–2011: Debut album
In 2009, Lieb began recording covers of popular songs and uploading them to YouTube from his home in Fairfield.[3] His videos accrued a large number of views while the positive response he received online encouraged him to release his first album, the self-titled Eli Lieb, independently on October 25, 2011.[4] Lieb wrote, recorded, and produced the album on his own in Fairfield.[5]
2013–present: Post-debut singles and second studio album
Lieb's single "Young Love" was released in July 2013, with music blog Idolator calling it "an instantly catchy, uplifting pop/rock anthem that sounds like a cross between Katy Perry and Bruce Springsteen".[6] In October 2013, Lieb's YouTube cover of Miley Cyrus's "Wrecking Ball" went viral and was supported through social media by singers Adam Lambert[7] and Lucy Hale.[8]
In 2014, Lieb released a free digital download titled "Safe In My Hands" in conjunction with Allstate's #OutHoldingHands campaign. The song was performed and co-written by Lieb and was featured in a short animated film for the same campaign.[9] "Safe In My Hands" was also featured in the Season 2 summer finale of ABC Family's The Fosters and won "Best In Show" and "Best Original Song" at the 2015 American Music Producers Awards for Music and Sound.[10]
On July 8, 2014, Lieb released a single "Zeppelin" produced by John Feldmann.[9] The accompanying music video was released on July 15 and was directed by Geoff Boothby.[11][12]
On September 13, 2014, Lieb performed "Young Love" at the GLAAD Gala San Francisco: Game Changers event for LGBT equality through the media.[13]
Lieb went on to release the single "Lightning in a Bottle", also produced by Fieldman, and its accompanying music video on November 19, 2014.[14] He went on to work on a second album with Feldmann as producer.[1] As of March 2023, he has almost 58 million views on his YouTube channel.[15]
Songwriting
In 2013, Lieb moved to Los Angeles to further his career as a songwriter. He has collaborated with artists including Cheyenne Jackson[16] and Crystal Bowersox. He is also confirmed[1] to have collaborated with Adam Lambert.
In 2015, Lieb has written with musical acts such as Hey Violet and Laura Marano alongside writing partner Stacy Jones.[17]
In March 2016, Eli and singer-songwriter Steve Grand co-wrote a duet, "Look Away".[18] By June 2019, the music video had received over 2,300,000 views on YouTube.
On June 13, 2016, two days after the Orlando nightclub shooting, Lieb and Brandon Skeie co-wrote a song named "Pulse" and released it in memory of the victims in the shooting.[19]
Personal life
Lieb is openly gay,[1] a subject that is frequently featured in his songs and music videos.
Lieb comes from a meditating family and has been practicing Transcendental Meditation since childhood. He credits it with allowing him to "freely create the music that I am creating without any fear".[20] He has worked with the David Lynch Foundation to fund teaching of Transcendental Meditation.[21]
