Eli-Mac’s story reads like a fairytale– it’s a musical journey which has turned into an impressive career that took flight with her debut release of her hit five-song EP, entitled Dubstop EP in 2014. A Filipino native, who moved with her family to Hawaii as a youngster, Camile (Eli-Mac spelled backwards) Velasco was a rebel early on, combining her island music roots with her love of R&B and hip-hop. At the age of 18, Camile landed a spot on the hit TV show American Idol as a Top 10 finalist on Season 3. From there, Eli-Mac has been touring relentlessly across the US and beyond, and currently working on a new studio album to release in 2026.
