ELEW, born Eric Lewis, is a rockjazz pianist, who brings elements of classical music into popular culture. He was the first musician to play in the Obama White House. he is very notable for his trademark power gauntlets which he wears regularly to all performances, if you don't see them in a performance they're still under his sleeves. Not without a struggle (and a measure of healthy angst), acclaimed pianist Eric Lewis is driving the next evolution of jazz — forging new musical alloys of classic blue note scuttles, delicate improvisations and heady alt rock hooks.
