Elliot Schwartzman is a multi instrumentalist, singer and songwriter originally from Rochester, NY who began learning about music and performing at a young age. As a young adult in 2008 he moved to Los Angeles where over the years he developed a music career as a touring band musician working for a number of artists big and small. Most notably in 2017 Elliot was hired as a full time touring band member (Keyboards, Guitar, Vocals) for the Pop Rock Grammy award winning and internationally renowned band, Imagine Dragons. Prior to his work with the Dragons he had the privilege of touring for a few years with another Grammy award winning artist, that time from the Country world, Dwight Yoakam (Keyboards, Guitar, Pedal Steel, Mandolin, Violin, Vocals). Zendaya, Casey Abrams, and Jason Mraz are just a few other notable names Elliot has had the opportunity to work with on stage as well as countless other local artists from around the Los Angeles area and beyond.
In 2016 after years of casually putting pen to paper Elliot began formal exploration into solo original songwriting and performance having been introduced to a Record Producer in the Topanga Canyon area of Los Angeles, Max Allen. Max worked closely with Elliot over the course of the year to help produce his first independently released collection of original recorded tunes on an EP titled 'California Cold'. As of 2024 having taken leave from the grind of the touring sideman life you can find Elliot back in Western New York exploring his roots, the beauty of the Finger Lakes Region and focusing on further original songwriting with intentions of releasing a full length album in 2025.
