Elohim is an American electropop recording artist, DJ, producer and singer-songwriter, based in Los Angeles.[2][3]
Career
The stage name "Elohim" is one of the Hebrew names for "God". The name inspired Elohim and moved her "in a really deep way" as it brought her "strength, solace, beauty and confidence."[4][5]
At the age of five, Elohim began playing the piano and writing songs.[6] Elohim's debut single is "Xanax", which was released in 2015 alongside other singles such as "She Talks Too Much" and "Bridge and the Wall", that are from her self-titled 2016 debut extended play.[7][8] She also released "Half Love" as a single from her self-titled 2018 debut studio album.[9] Elohim independently released the first part of her two-part album "Braindead" on May 10, 2019. In commemoration of Mental Health Awareness month, proceeds of the EP went towards various mental health initiatives.[10] The EP deals heavily with the themes of mental illness.[11] Elohim has supported various artists on tour included Blackbear, Louis The Child and The Glitch Mob.[12] In February 2020 she embarked on a US tour called the "Group Therapy Tour." [13] The tour was subsequently postponed due to COVID-19.[14]
