Whether it is distance, personal obstacles or differing states of mind, the contributors to this project are constantly working to break down the barriers in order to remove the obstacles and to embrace the revival. This is the dance we all revel in and the celebration is open for us all to share. In this respect, we can all help to revive the human spirit through song and dance.

Elephant Revival – Back in the Recording Studio – Back on Tour -- Embracing the Changing Seasons


Elephant Revival, neo –acoustic quintet from Nederland Colorado, is preparing for an incredible holiday season and a Happy New Year as the first decade of the new millennium comes to its triumphant conclusion. After having played nearly 150 shows in 2009, the group is now enjoying a more laid back touring schedule close to home on the Colorado Front Range during the short days and long nights of winter. Focusing on the cultivation and integration of new music, the band is grateful to have this time in the higher elevations. The group is currently in the studio finishing up the production of their second studio album with David Tiller of Taarka, scheduled for release in late spring of 2010.

For the remainder of 2009, the band will be making special appearances across the Rocky Mountains. Upcoming notable Colorado & area performances include; The Moab Folk Festival (November 6-7), The Aggie Theater (November 18), The Mark Vann Benefit at The Boulder Theater (December 5), Swallow Hill Music Association (December 13) and at The Boulder Drafthouse (New Years Eve).

On tap for the beginning of 2010 is a showcase performance at The Sundance Film Festival as well as a ski tour along Colorado's great I-70 corridor. Close to home Elephant Revival appears as part of Winterfest on the Mountain in Nederland Colorado on January 22-24. Additionally, the band is organizing a very special benefit concert for the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota on February 5 at The Boulder Theater. On February 21 ER will return to Norman Oklahoma for the famous Winter Winds Concert Series and on March 24 Elephant Revival will be making a debut appearance at the legendary Freight & Salvage in Berkeley CA.

Elephant Revival plays a unique blend of an emerging new musical genre called Transcendental Folk. Individually and collectively the band members have performed with some of the most prolific performers of our time including Bela Fleck, John Paul Jones, Michael Franti, Little Feat, Yonder Mountain String Band, George Clinton and Parliament Funkadelic, Leftover Salmon, Railroad Earth, and State Radio, among others. The quintet can be seen delving into Scottish/Celtic fiddle tunes, original folk pieces, traditional ballads, psychedelic country, indie rock, powerful reggae grooves, 40s/50s jazz standards and an occasional hip-hop beat amongst other styles. The band consists of Bonnie Paine (vocals, washboard, djembe, musical saw), Sage Cook (electric banjo/guitar, acoustic guitar, mandolin, viola, vocals), Dango Rose (double-bass, mandolin, banjo, vocals), Daniel Rodriguez (acoustic guitar, electric banjo/guitar vocals) and Bridget Law (fiddle and vocals).

Following the release of Elephant Revivals 2008 CD, Boulder Weekly entertainment writer Dave Kirby enthused, "The album brims with poised folk ballads, modern Celtic fiddle dirges, hints of blues and Appalachia... coaxing the spirit but slyly avoiding climbing fully into each form's body." Marquee Magazine journalist Jeffery Keith further elaborated, "Following the lead, but not the footsteps, of groups like Leftover Salmon and Yonder Mountain String Band, the five-piece Elephant Revival has created a unique and appealing modern acoustic sound simultaneously soaked in all manner of tradition.

Elephant Revival carries a fresh sense of creativity and inspiration that is felt by people of every generation. Musically and collaboratively Elephant Revival is inspired to spread a message of sustainability while nurturing an awareness of positive change through the pure light intention & creativity of their music.

"I am forced to confront the music as it is, connecting to it with a virgin spirit of mind. Consequently it feels like I am experiencing music and all its joys for the very first time."

And so I do each day thanks! Ring Around The Moon indeed!

Always love ... Always music,
