ELEPHANT's MySpace Blog |

We are very pleased to announce that in partnership with Nevado Records and Fontana-Universal, ELEPHANT's debut album The Violet Hour will be released nationally to stores across Canada as of July 15th. You'll also be able to grab it song by song on iTunes. Chances are we'll be coming through your town in the next month during our cross-country tour, but if you miss us, make sure to hit up the nearest Indigo-Chapters, BestBuy, HMV etc. Can't wait to hear what you think...

ELEPHANT goes Coast to Coast with S4C

It's our pleasure to announce our participation in the inspiring Skate4Cancer "The Cure is Knowledge" cross-Canada tour. Accompanying our hero Rob Dyer, we will be travelling throughout Canada spreading awareness about the realities of cancer and sharing hope and love with heaps of people. Along with our boys Shad and Matthew Johnston, we will be blasting heavy tunes to keep the events energized, fun and of course, musical. With help from Element Skateboards, Circa Skateboards, MTV and MySpace, this tour is going to be a dream come true. Come out and join the movement, and if you get the chance, come chat with us about life! See you on the road,

ELEPHANT

ELEPHANT on Nevado Records

We're excited to announce that Elephant has officially become the newest band on the independant record label Nevado Records! This community oriented label is loaded with sweet local acts like "Reily", "Bass Lions" and "Fox Jaws". It's an honour to be working with such a sincere group of people, and the future promises to be full of great tours, sweet albums and, more than likely, a couple family barbeques. To read more about Nevado, check their website at www.Nevadorecords.com.

ELEPHANT becomes a quartet

Well, after a patient search and a serendipitous dream, we have found the fourth member of Elephant. We are proud to welcome Brett Watterton into our band as the lead guitarist, and if we're lucky, master of squeeze-boxology. His moving sound and style are intensified by a musical chemistry that provides a unique addition to our evolving sound. This exciting new contribution will be heard in our upcoming live performances as well as throughout the nearly finished LP. And for all the internet creepers, new 4-piece photos are in the works.
