“Elias’ strengths as a jazz artist, combined with her roots in São Paulo, make her one of the most impressive interpreters of jazz-linked bossa novas, sambas and choros….” – Los Angeles Times

Award-winning pianist/singer/composer/arranger Eliane Elias’ distinctive musical style is one of the most unique and immediately recognizable sounds in jazz and Brazilian music. She blends her Brazilian roots and alluring voice with virtuosic instrumental jazz, classical, and compositional skills while consistently displaying her pianistic mastery.

With the release of her 2024 recording Time and Again, Elias proves that she remains a multifaceted, groundbreaking artist who continues to reach new heights in a brilliant career spanning decades. Time and Again reflects the same level of artistry and ingenuity Elias has demonstrated throughout her career. 

With 32 albums and over 2.5 million albums sold to date, Elias has toured in 78 countries, is a four-time Gold Disc Award recipient, a three-time Best Vocal Album winner in Japan, and a winner of the 2018 Edison Lifetime Achievement Award in Holland. Elias has also received 11 total Grammy and Latin Grammy nominations in five different categories thus far, winning two Grammy Awards and two Latin Grammy Awards.

Elias’ live performances showcase the breadth of her talents along with her charismatic personality, bringing a wide spectrum of musical experiences and unique presentations to the audience. Melding her affinity for jazz, Brazilian, classical, and pop music, Elias is, as Jazziz magazine has called her, a “citizen of the world” and “an artist beyond category.”  Her performance will be a tribute to Memphis’ own jazz giant, the late great Malvin Massey.
