Elijah Jalil is a singer-songwriter based in Missoula, Montana. Originally from the Bay Area (CA), Elijah made his way towards the mountains after studying theater in Portland, OR to work on his Masters of Fine Arts in Acting at the University of Montana. He is a dedicated social justice artist focused on changing the world by creating and collaborating on all forms of art.
Largely inspired by Hip-Hop, R&B, Soul, and other Pop genres, Elijah started his journey with a guitar and his voice. After playing at multiple open mics around Missoula, the consistently magical collaboration with Britt Arnesen helped this debut album, Nothing to Say, come to life.
lyrics
MUCH LOVE
Words and music by Elijah Jalil
I believe I believe in something ohhhh
I believe I believe there’s someone watching over us
I believe I believe that love conquers all
I believe I believe I’m loving every moment with you
Enjoying the view
When I’m with you, the time it don’t move
It all seems to stop
The world seems to fall away
But I don’t care, I’m loving it all, hey
I love you
I really do
I really do
I really do
I really do
I believe I believe in something ohhhh
I believe I believe there’s someone watching over us
I believe I believe that love conquers all
I believe I believe I’m loving every moment with you
Our love is true
No one understands me like you do
You build me up
But not too high
The perfect balance I’ll keep you by my side
I love you
I really do
I really do
I really do
I really do
I know I don’t tell you enough, but I need you to know that I love you
I know that our world messed up, but in my eyes there’s nothing above you
I’ve learned so much in this life, in this time and it’s all because of you
I know I don’t tell you enough but I need you to know that
I love you

I never get sick of listening. Courtney is an amazing writer. Her lyrics don't waste a single word. She could carry this whole EP with just the strength of her voice & guitar, but her band rocks too! Britt Arnesen
Missoula songwriters Maria Zepeda and Elijah Jalil have made absolute magic. I was honored to be in the room when this music was laid down by these fine old souls. It is my new favorite album! Britt Arnesen
