INTRODUCING : ELYZE
In 2019, Elyze's El Impacto De Mi Aislamiento Extremo record was released, earning nods for its grit, hooks, and sonic chemistry.

The buzz was real; the potential undeniable.
Elton Salazar in his prime...
Cut to 2025: The journey's paid-off! Elton Salazar – front man for Elyze – has been spearheading Elyze and has now broken through regional ceilings. Elyze's fanbase spans continents, rocking South America, Mexico, and crucial US hubs. Riding a wave of inspired creativity and proving adept at folding current sounds into his DNA, Elton is an artist hitting his absolute prime. He's not just relevant; he's defining the moment, smartly navigating the modern music landscape to craft his most compelling work yet – an artist truly in his zone. And with that momentum, he's put Elyze firmly on the map as an important international act.
Redefining Spanish Rock: "Elyze's Rock 'n' Roll poetry is shining through!!"
Forget keeping pace – some artists set a whole new one. While the genre of Spanish Rock finds its footing alongside global rock behemoths, Elyze isn't just catching up; they're launching into an entirely different orbit, fueled by a raw, post-punk ambition that feels both timeless and urgently now. Elton, as the band's visionary architect, steers Elyze through shadow-drenched sonic landscapes where jagged guitar lines meet shimmering synth hooks, crafting a sound that owes as much to Manchester's rain-slicked streets as it does to Madrid's electric nights. Their recent singles – and the tantalizing promise of more dropping this year – are potent shots of this addictive alchemy: think dark wave atmospherics fused with the undeniable hooks of classic synth-pop, all delivered with a post-punk snarl and swagger. This isn't imitation; it's a bold reinvention, a sound that’s simultaneously haunting and impossibly catchy. This is the kind of music that gets under your skin, intelligent and visceral, demanding your attention. Elyze is the vanguard of a new wave, carving out a unique space that feels vital and utterly soul vibing, perfect for late-night drives or losing yourself on a darkened dance floor. Elyze isn't just an artist to watch; they are the band to experience now; they're channeling the zeitgeist, forging a vital path that blends darkness and danceability with uncanny precision. Elyze's Rock'n' Roll poetry is shining through!! Miss them at your peril – Elyze is projecting the sound of the future Spanish Rock now.

ABOUT ELTON
At 12 years old, Elton Juan Salazar Lopez stumbled upon a black and white image in a history book that would change his life forever: Pablo Picasso's Guernica. Although Elton didn't yet have the words to explain it, he understood it instantly; the anguish, the chaos, the humanity… it all spoke directly to something buried deep within him. In that moment, Elton understood that true expression needs no translation. Art, in its purest form, is emotion made visible; it's a desire to freely connect with others to express what's internal.
That awakening at 12 years old became the foundation of Elton's artistic journey. Influenced by the raw emotion of Spanish rock legends like Caifanes, the emotional rawness of Charles Bukowski, the introspective depth of Latin American poetry, and the cinematic intensity of auteurs like Alejandro González Iñárritu and David Lynch, Elton writes songs that fuse nostalgia with existential clarity. Every lyric is a silent rebellion, every melody a reflection of the human condition: love, loss, identity, and the silences that reside between them.
Based in Houston, Texas, Elton has forged a voice that resonates with those who seek music unafraid to feel. His sound balances the melancholic textures of post-punk with the intimacy of indie pop, delivering stories that are both deeply personal and universally felt.
More than a singer-songwriter, Elton is a narrator of the invisible: of unspoken thoughts, nocturnal questions, and the quiet strength found in vulnerability. Through music, he has found not only his voice, but a way to remind others that they too are not alone.
