About Eloise Alterman:
I’m Eloise Alterman, a singer-songwriter on a journey fueled by passion, perseverance, and the power of music to weave tales that resonate with the soul. My story began in Detroit, where I found solace and expression through songwriting from a young age. Growing up as the only music enthusiast in my family, I knew early on that music was my calling. In pursuit of my dreams, I made the bold decision to move to the vibrant city of West Hollywood in 2021, and I haven’t looked back since. Immersed in the creative energy and endless possibilities of this eclectic community, I’ve found inspiration around every corner and forged meaningful connections with fellow artists and collaborators. My music is a reflection of life’s highs and lows, weaving together melodies and lyrics that capture the essence of human experience. From heartache to hope, from dreams to reality, each song is a glimpse into my world, shared with the hope of connecting with others on a deeply personal level.
