Eli West

Eli West is a Seattle-based folk musician and multi-instrumentalist celebrated for his warm, textured acoustic arrangements and collaborative spirit. Rooted in Appalachian traditions and modern Americana, he’s known for partnerships with artists like Cahalen Morrison (as the duo **Cahalen Morrison & Eli West**) and guitarist Tony Furtado. His music blends intricate guitar work, banjo, and mandolin with soulful harmonies, often exploring themes of nature and human connection. Albums like *Tapered Point of Stone* and *I Know Your Wandering Heart* showcase his knack for reimagining folk conventions with fresh intimacy, while *Cwtch* (meaning “hug” or “safe place” in Welsh) highlights his gift for evocative storytelling. Whether live (as heard on *The Mark Radcliffe Folk Sessions*) or in studio recordings, Eli’s music feels like a cozy campfire session—inviting, earnest, and deeply rooted in communal sound.
