About Me

If you havent heard of Elliot Szabo, take a moment to pay attention. Once this musical artist get the exposure his talent deserves you will be glad you knew about him from the start. A dynamic singer songwriter, Szabos melodies have a timeless sound and his lyrics leap the boundaries of your heart and imagination.Born and raised in Indiana, Szabos musical influences are the rock classics of the 60s and 70s. Self taught on the guitar and every other instrument he came in contact with, Szabo began writing his own music at 15. Though college and traveling he continued to write, jotting down random lyrics and poetry while pursuing other activities and job. After a few years he settled in Chicago where he continued his musical education by playing in clubs and massaging those random writings into the music that will be on his upcoming debut CD.Listening to Szabos music, you instantly feel a connection with his haunting and original melodies and his lyrics which evoke your own memories of lost love, found love, and life experiences. Influenced by Elliot Smith and Jethro Tull, Szabo seamlessly blends a calm intensity and direct simplicity. His voice can melt your heart in one moment and charge you up in the next. Each song is a snapshot evoking the emotions that Szabos music and musicianship bring to a listener.As good as the recorded sound is you need to experience Elliot Szabo in person to capture the full impact of his music. He has an uncanny ability to capture your attention and stir your soul, making you want to sit up and listen more closely. Youll find yourself drawn to his music as it evokes feelings in your long forgotten. Elliot Szabo will make you feel like you have traveled back in time to the days when a guitar and a microphone was all you needed to play great rock music. And once you experience this lost land of acoustic rock with Szabo, youll want to travel there with him again and again.
thanks for the layout, ellie!
