The debut album ‘Stage Girl’ exists as a ten-track conceptual pop epic built on the foundations of fictional reality singing competitions and childhood memories. Eli collaborated with producers Mike Wise, Jason Vance Harris, and Jasper Harris to assemble this body of work under RCA Records. This collection follows the momentum of previous singles “Marianne” and “Girl of Your Dreams” while expanding into new sonic territory. Every song anchors itself in Eli’s vocal range and a specific dedication to the history of the pop genre.
The record moves from the diaristic tone of “Somebody I’m Not” into the operatic heights of “Falsetto” and the seductive energy of “Like a Girl.” These tracks mirror the visual world Eli established through her multi-part video series and recent sold-out one-woman shows in Los Angeles and New York. The music draws from the sincerity of a screenager while utilizing influences ranging from Mariah Carey to Imogen Heap. This album is a high-energy triumph of self-awareness and vocal power.
Eli wrote and produced these songs from her bedroom in Los Angeles using a pink fuzzy pen and massive musical aspirations. The finished tracks possess stadium-level production value combined with the niche appeal of internet subcultures. High-profile supporters like Sza and Troye Sivan have already noted her arrival in the industry. The project stands as a factual testament to a performer who understands the mechanics of stardom and the art of the hook.
