Ever since he would sneak a Barbie CD player out of his sister s room to listen to his dad s favorite albums from bands like U2, The Police and Talking Heads, Eli Josef has had a passion for music. [My dad] is really into music so, through that, I kind of found my own likings of different bands and whatnot but really that Barbie CD player, Josef says.
Originally from Wimberley, Josef, a local San Marcos artist, started songwriting at the age of 16 and was influenced by indie pop artists such as Rex Orange County and Mac Demarco. Today, with the help of his band members, Josef has released two albums and eight singles.
