Meet EL Tsid, the Atlanta-born artist who writes, sings, and produces music straight from the heart—with a dash of spontaneity. Her music, which spans genres and defies easy categorization, reflects her diverse influences and her deep understanding of the creative process. As an autodidact, EL Tsid's journey in music is a testament to her relentless pursuit of knowledge and her commitment to honing her craft. She embarked on her musical adventure in the bustling streets of Brooklyn, NYC, where she first took the stage with nothing but a loop pedal and a head full of melodies. She creates immersive, layered soundscapes that captivate her audiences. But EL Tsid isn't just about creating. After making waves in the New York City music scene, she hit pause, taking a hiatus to soak up new experiences, gather stories, and, as she puts it, "live a little life worth writing about.” This period of introspection and growth has only deepened her artistry. With a renewed sense of purpose and a wealth of new experiences, she's back, armed with fresh tales and sounds, ready to spill them into the world with that same electric energy. Whether she's layering loops or penning lyrics, EL Tsid is always crafting something real, something honest, and something that's totally her own.
