Bio
Eloise Shaw
Eloise Shaw is a 20-year-old singer-songwriter whose music blends the warmth of folk, the honesty of indie, and the edge of alternative storytelling. Originally from Newbury, Massachusetts, and now attending college in Rhode Island, Eloise has been writing songs for nore than half her life, drawing inspiration from the people, places, and moments that shape her journey.
Her love for music began at just five years old when she learned to play piano and fell in love with singing. Her favorite song was "Do-Re-Mi" from The Sound of Music, and she would sing it throughout the house, unknowingly laying the foundation for a lifelong passion. At age eleven, she begged her parents for a guitar, and never put it down. That same year, she began writing original songs, performing her very first composition at her fifth-grade talent show.
Since then, songwriting has become more than a hobby- it has become the way Eloise makes sense of the world. Her music pairs introspective lyrics with acoustic-driven melodies, creating songs that feel both deeply personal and universally relatable.
In 2025, Eloise independently released her debut single, "This Home," which received radio airplay on Boston's 92.5 The River in December 2025. She followed it with "Fire Driven (Shaw Version)" in February 2026, continuing to establish herself as an emerging voice in the indie-folk scene.
Whether performing with just her guitar or bringing a full arrangement to the stage, Eloise's music is rooted in authenticity, vulnerability, and connection. As she continues to write, record, and perform, she hopes her songs become a place where listeners can find comfort, reflection, and a sense of home.
