Zen Elephant are emerging as one of the Southwest’s freshest and most original bands. They create an acoustic-based groove accompanied by passionate vocals, and rhythms which ecompass elements of traditional folk, reggae and roots music. The lyrics aim to bring to light the beauty and ugliness of the human condition, whilst promoting positivity and progression for a better world. The summer of 2010 saw the quartet burst onto the UK festival circuit, with appearances at Glastonbury, Secret Garden Party, Green Man, Sunrise, and many more. Zen Elephant's much anticipated first album is currently being recorded and will be released in October 2010. The debut EP entitled 'These are the times' is available to download on iTunes. CD's are available to buy from this page ('sounds like' section) MyGenProfile Generator "Zen Elephant convincingly meld a wide range of styles into their own distinctive sound that is coherent and above all very accessible. ‘These Are The Times’ has all the richness and credibility that the discerning music fan could want, bundled in with grooves you can dance to and hooks you can sing along to."
