Eliza Neals is an artist, producer, bandleader, singer, songwriter and pianist. She has earned numerous accolades and awards for her self written and produced blues infused gems that are heard on SiriusXM’s B.B. King’s Bluesville since 2015. Eliza Neals skillfully creates blues, rock and soul melodies into unforgettable songs that are breaking the boundaries of modern blues. Eliza’s talent with her three and a half octave mezzo-soprano voice has been recognized by everyone in the blues genre including the legend Mr. Buddy Guy. He recently invited her to open for him at his iconic Chicago club ‘Buddy Guy’s Legends’ in Jan 2025. Eliza Neals has also been invited by the Blues Foundation Hall of Fame icon, Mr. Joe Louis Walker, four times to the prestigious “Mustique Blues Festival” on aka Mick Jagger Island. Upon meeting Mick himself after her set, he said, “A voice I soon won’t forget, Great” Mick Jagger.
Neals has brought a fresh and contemporary energy to the blues genre, infusing it with elements of rock, soul and a hard hitting Detroit sound. Being the last Motown trained singer by songwriting legend Mr. Barrett Strong, is a gift you have to hear live. Her dynamic stage presence and powerful voice have contributed to revitalizing traditional blues music, attracting a wider audience and garnering attention from listeners who may not typically gravitate towards the genre.
Eliza Neals impact on the genre extends beyond her beautiful image, and she continues to be a driving force in pushing the boundaries of contemporary blues music by demanding female representation. As a pioneer artist in the scene being a label owner since 2005 many are now following her lead. The thrill is to catch her live on stage.
