May 30 – Simon Elijah

Join us on May 30 for an evening of folk and Americana with rising singer-songwriter Simon Elijah.

Hailing from upstate New York, Simon Elijah is a young artist with a gift for storytelling, blending heartfelt lyricism with a sharp, often playful sense of humor. His music draws from a wide range of influences, from folk icons like John Prine and Pete Seeger to contemporary voices such as Jason Isbell and Brandi Carlile, creating a sound that feels both timeless and distinctly his own.

Elijah began playing guitar and writing songs at an early age, developing a style that moves easily between the deeply personal and the universally relatable. His songs can be reflective, witty, and emotionally grounded, inviting listeners in with a sense of intimacy and connection.

In 2025, he released his debut album Fly Out, a collection that explores themes of home, growth, and transition. A follow-up release, Nameless, is slated for 2026, marking the next step in his evolution as a songwriter and performer.

Known for engaging live performances that often incorporate humor and audience interaction, Simon Elijah brings a fresh voice to the contemporary folk landscape while staying rooted in the traditions that shaped the genre.
