Private performance by Rockjazz pianist Eric Lewis (ELEW). 

ELEW is a preternaturally talented jazz piano player who has used the creation of his own genre—an inspired melding of ragtime, rock and pop that he calls Rockjazz—to reinvent himself as a mainstream musician.  He has gone from playing tiny jazz clubs to bringing crowds to their feet in fifteen-thousand seat arenas—and he’s done it all without a record deal.

Forsaking a piano bench, ELEW stands before his instrument like a runner at the starting line, furiously manipulating today’s rock and pop hits with a creative potency that has attracted the attention of today’s biggest stars and companies, including Josh Groban, Dave Matthews, America’s Got Talent, Google, Loews Hotels, Fendi, Valentino, and even the White House.

ELEW’s much-anticipated sophomore album, ELEW Rockjazz Vol. 2, is currently scheduled for an April 2012 release.  The record features blistering piano recreations of tunes by artists like the Foo Fighters, Michael Jackson, Coldplay, and more.  Learn more at ELEWROCKJAZZ.com.
