At last, I will talk about Elephant; a moment I know all of you have been waiting for.
I discovered this band in Sala Apolo, in the San Miguel Primavera Sound in Barcelona, as I said in my entry about that festival: http://sebasrandom.blogspot.com.es/2012/06/san-miguel-primavera-sound.html
Anyway, now I will talk about them:
Elephant was born in 2010 with two components: Amelia Rivas and Christian Pinchbeck.
They have released a couple of singles and EPs and nowadays the band has changed: Christian is no longer with the band and there are now another two guys playing, whose names I do not know.... (if you read this, sorry guys!)
Their music has a very relaxed and chillout style. A great part of the weight of their performance falls on Amelia's voice, which is very strong but smooth and the whole outcome is either entrancing or cheering (as in: it cheers you up). This effect was increased in their performance in Primavera Sound given that the blue and purple lights with smoke around Amelia were very hypnotical.
BTW, if my descriptions of the music and voice are pathetic, I apologize because I am not an expert in this matter and am only describing these things the best way I can, which is probably not good enough LOL.
On top of how good they sound, they are really nice people, given that I was able to talk to them after their concert and they were really friendly and willing to chat. They even sent me some songs later on!
Well I am going to give them an 9/10 because I am not really into alternative and indie music (as you may have realised by my descrptions of their music) but they really surprised me and made me enjoy their concert. I suppose it also helps that Amelia is as gorgeous as her voice, what can I say.
BTW they have released a new single and I think they are going for their next EP!
This is their site: http://elephantshop.bandcamp.com/
And this is the site for their record company, Memphis Industries: http://www.memphis-industries.com/
You can find songs by them in both sites.
Entry on Hooray for Earth will come soon!
Meanwhile enjoy some songs by Elephant (because "Elephant songs" would have sounded weird)
