Hello everyone,

Our forthcoming single 'Change My World' has now been sent to most radio stations across the UK. To get as much airplay as we can, we need YOUR help!

Many requests may result in the song getting on the stations play list.

To text any Radio 2 show: 88291 (the national channel most likely to play the track)
To text any Radio 1 show: 81199

Most of your local radio stations should have it as well;)

Thanks so much for all your support, see you soon on tour!

Love

Greetings elkoholics!

We've decided to run a little competition for our November tour. The challenge is; Who can make the funniest/most random banner/poster on the tour. On our last tour there was a banner saying 'I want to lick Ric'.. We're not suggesting this is the way forward, but it can say absolutely anything or it could be a picture/drawing - up to you.. Best poster in each city will be rewarded;)

Good luck.

Hello everyone!

We can now announce that our debut album 'Caught In The Headlights' will be out on 18th October digitally, and on 19th October it will be on the shelves in the shops!
The album has got 12 tracks - and you might get a pleasant surprise if you leave your CD player running;) We are very excited about this. It's taken a while to get this out to you guys, due to stupid industry politics, so it's a big relief that we finally can show you what we're all about. There will be new live dates up in not too long as well, so keep an eye on our page for that - we're very keen to visit your beautiful cities again!

Lots of elklove,

Kjetil and Absent Elk x

Hi everybody

We are getting a lot of questions right now about release dates (for next singles and the album).  This is to be expected, as the dates we originally announced have now passed! For various reasons, we have had to change our schedule a little ...so please accept our apologies for this

All is well in elk land, and we really won't keep you waiting much longer.

Keep your eyes peeled, and we'll list the new release dates as soon as we possibly can.

Thanks for your patience.

Love to all.

Thanks to everyone who made our show in Norway at the weekend a great one! We had alot of fun playing such a legendary venue. We've put up a few pics that were taken on our page, and there is also a very cute video on YouTube of a little girl called Emily dancing to our song Emily on stage. Check it out;)

ello people...

just thought I'd say a quick hello from beautiful Oslo, where we're currently shooting the video for our next single 'Emily'.  this video will be very different to our last, and we're having a lot of fun putting it together

off to do the live performance section today, in a wicked little venue ...and looking forward to getting our groove on

for various reasons, this video shoot has ended up taking place a little later in the year than we expected, so the release date of 'emily' may well shift a little later ...hope you can forgive us!?  we will keep you all updated as thoroughly as we possibly can


thanks goes out to our director and leading lady, it's a pleasure working with you (see you in minute!)

ross xx

Hello lovelies 


I know we still have the London show to come, but we have a few days off now, so I figured I'd just write a quick note to say thank you to all those of you who've come along to see us.  Most of the shows have been pretty packed, and we really appreciate the turnout


The tour so far has been a lot of fun, and we've actually really enjoyed playing smaller/more rock 'n' roll venues again... as well as the chance to play proper long sets
(rather than short slots we've been restricted to of late, as a support band for the likes of girls aloud)

Please keep an eye on our profile, as we will be back on the road someday soon... probably starting with whichever cities have made us feel the most welcome.  You will be rewarded for the support you've shown us ;)

So, just London to go now.  This is your last chance...
 
Islington Academy, 2nd July.  
Tickets still available.

Hopefully see you there.
Looking forward to it...

Thanks again people, really loving your work!
