The result of this inspiration is a 4-track EP that boasts girl-group orchestral pop ushered in by the sounds of thunder and filtered by a cloud of fuzz and fog. Later tracks are beautiful psych pop songs woven with church choir-like shrills, primal cricket-like beats, and the sounds of the ocean" [KZSC].

It’s Thomas Conolly, who plays guitar and sings. It’s Ritchie Hopkins, who plays drums and sings. And it’s Glenn Fisher, who plays bass and sings. All three of members of Elk used to be in a band called Winston. After that, Glenn and Ritch were in The Green Acre and later, Glenn and Ritch we’re the Glenn and Ritch in Andy, Glenn and Ritch. For a few years all three stopped playing. But eventually, the three of them started to miss playing, so got Elk together. Their first release was "Reading Habits".
