Eli Maliki is a Kenyan Ugandan soul fusion artist with a drive to uplift others. Playing music since childhood, the multi-instrumentalist has grown to be a profound songwriter/arranger, performer and minister of Soul and RnB.
His first album HEY (released September 2015 as Eli Live) enchanted the ears and soul of his African fans with pure live sounds. Born in a musical family, Eli started his journey at a young age. Alongside playing in the family band as backup singer, dancer and instrumentalist, he served the church choir and later became its leader. When the family band grew apart due to different personal responsibilities, he went solo as Eli Maliki. Elijah has grown to share, learn and teach in his career over the years through performances and workshops in different parts of East Africa and Europe sharing stage with household names such as Sautisol, Eric Wainaina etc.
Eli is currently working on new music and international collaborations.
