taken from their lastfm page:
The birth of Elliott was in the fall of 1995 when guitarist Jay Palumbo left the band Empathy, moved to Louisville, KY and joined up with Chris
Higdon (vox/guitar) and Jonathan Mobley (bass). Higdon and Mobley had recently ended an accomplished run with the highly acclaimed band
Falling Forward and been jamming with one another on an off since childhood. With the intention of sounding unlike a continuation of any of their
previous hardcore bands, the threesome began writing and, with the temporary fill in drummer, soon recorded a 7” for Initial Records. ...read more

The birth of Elliott was in the fall of 1995 when guitarist Jay Palumbo left the band Empathy, moved to Louisville, KY and joined up with Chris
Higdon (vox/guitar) and Jonathan Mobley (bass). Higdon and Mobley had recently ended an accomplished run with the highly acclaimed band
Falling Forward and been jamming with one another on an off since childhood. With the intention of sounding unlike a continuation of any of their
previous hardcore bands, the threesome began writing and, with the temporary fill in drummer, soon recorded a 7” for Initial Records. The band’s
sound was developing into one that was quite their own: an extremely textured combination of melodic hardcore, rock, and emo that hits you
smack in the face one minute and sways you into a daydream the next. In the fall of ‘96 they enlisted drummer Kevin Ratterman and the true
focus of Elliott began.
Since then, Elliott have toured every inch of North America, building a substantial and loyal fanbase, playing on every type of bill imaginable.
Metal/hardcore to alt/emo bands, Elliott have played with all of them and to much commendation. In fact, the band welcomes and often times
prefers the opportunity to play with bands as dissimilar to them as possible. « hide |
