Elia Berthoud

Elia Berthoud is an LA-based singer, songwriter, and producer blending indie pop, soul, and electronic textures into personal, cinematic soundscapes. After starting as a model and multidisciplinary creative, he taught himself music production and began releasing music in 2019. His songs explore vulnerability, resilience, and connection. He’s released EPs including Youu, Higher and Higher, and Vitamin E, the latter co-produced with Grammy-winner Bob “Bassy” Brockmann. His singles “Get Away” and “Coming Through” charted on the US iTunes Pop and R&B charts. In 2021, he teamed up with platinum-selling artist VASSY on the duet “Without You,” produced by Grammy-nominated Drew Scott. Elia crossed into hip hop with the Upside / Down Remix featuring rapper Asian Doll, and his latest single “8888” continues to expand his genre-blending sound. His music has been featured on MTV USA, iHeartRadio, SiriusXM, and in shows like Germany Shore, Are You the One?, and the upcoming film Baima Boy. His debut album APOLLO is a turning point—transforming heartache into warmth and light. Entirely self-produced, written, and recorded by Elia, the 10-song album was mixed and mastered by Grammy-winning engineer Jim Caruana. Drawn to organic collaboration and guided by a deep connection with nature, Elia continues to craft emotionally-driven, genre-fluid music that reflects his journey as a self-made artist.
