Chazzan EB | Feel the Ruach. Raise the Room.

What I Do

I bring Carlebach-style acoustic davening, energy and musical ruach to Orthodox communities across America. Whether it’s a soulful Shabbat, uplifting Yom Tov, kumzits, Havdalah concert or simcha, the goal is always the same: to create a room where everyone sings together naturally, joyfully and powerfully. All davening follows traditional halachic minhagim and is conducted entirely in Hebrew.

About Elliott

I'm a British-born Israeli raised in and around community my whole life. Music, davening and communal singing have always been at the heart of who I am. I've led davening and performed worldwide — from London, to Hong Kong, to Israel to South Africa — and have been leading High Holiday davening for over 18 years. Today I'm based in the USA on shlichut as a diplomatic spouse and Israeli hi-tech representative. But when Shabbat comes in, everything else falls away. My heart is with my guitar, piano, my voice and the kehillah in front of me.
