Liverpool’s experimental three-piece, ELEVANT are set to release their eagerly awaited new album on their own Elevant Music Limited imprint on the 4th of March 2016.

The Elevant line up of Michael Edward (guitar / vocals), Tom Shand (drums / piano) and Hannah Lodge (bass / organ) haveover the last two years combined their love of My Bloody Valentine, Sonic Youth, St Vincent, Bauhaus, Tame Impala, The Melvins and Portishead to create something very special. Effortlessly twisting a pop hook to their post punk, psych and krautrock sound to great effect, there is an energy and vision that sets them apart from their contemporaries.
A truly innovative and exciting live band, Elevant are set to play the following UK shows to coincide with the album release. The dates will include a hometown album launch show at Liverpool’s Buyers Club on the 9th of March and a London date at theSebright Arms on the 16th of March with label mates Too Many Poets.
