Goodbye [MP3] Thirteen Things [MP3] Goodbye (video clip) [YouTube] The elephants parade. Despite their size they make little noise. They are introverted subtle beings, stilling a hug and a kiss from a loved one even when surrounded by a crowd. They create subtle caressing music, which its power is in its quietness, in its being very personal and delicate. Well, they might not be big like elephants, but Elephant Parade still make a music that seems to project the emotional world of this gentle giant mammal. Small music [...]
There are oodles of bands with animals as their names. Here's a hodgepodge: Simon & Garfunkel ~ At The Zoo The Bird & The Bee ~ Again & Again Cheetah ~ The Oral Office White Lion ~ When The Children Cry Crazy Horse ~ I Don't Want To Talk About It Dr. Dog ~ My Old Ways Baby Elephant [...]
Etelle and Ido are the brains behind the Elephant Parade. They self-released their debut album, Bedroom Recordings , in 2006. They have been shocked by the success that this promotion-less album has produced on itunes. They started playing together two years ago when they used chat-microphones and audio software on their computer. You can purchase their album for a measly $9 by going here , or you can use iTunes.

"If you think it's time to change, then I hope that change mocks you. I won't get in your way. I've got nothing left to say but 'goodbye.' Goodbye." See those two adorable kids? Taking strides in a far different direction from my last post, Elephant Parade is a duo from New York City, and despite holding a name that rings in imagery of huge animals stomping about, Elephant Parade is very hushed, very dreamy and...small. Aside from the [...]
Don't they look peaceful lying there in the grass? I think I need to do some of that too. Elephant Parade is Estelle and Ido . This dreamy pop duo combines super laid back whisp-ish vocals with acoustic guitar and fun catchy Casio/piano melodies. You can definitely listen to this music while laying down in your favorite park, I promise it'll be worth it. Based on some of their show pictures , they sit right next to eachother playing on the same keyboard, which is totally rad. They toured briefly [...]
Having driven for nine hours to get back to Harrisonburg from Ohio, and after taking a drive through eastern West Virginia today, I've been thinking about this mixtape a bit lately. Somewhere in this notion of driving are memories of tipsy girls, parties, and the sweetly interested guys and friends who clean things (and people) up.

There are a few things you need to know about Elephant Parade: 1) They are Estelle and Ido. (For this purpose, they do not have last names. Their first names sound fake, but presumably aren't.) 2) They make twinkly, lo-fi pop that's cuter than a basketful of Labradoodle puppies. 3) You cannot abbreviate Elephant Parade to E.P. because it confuses people. For example: If I tried to tell you that E.P. just pressed a new batch of Bedroom Recordings , their [...]

Hauntingly melodic, Brooklyn's Elephant Parade betray their cumbersome name with delicate, heart-wrenching pop. A boy, a girl, a keyboard, sure it's been done before, but never so effortlessly. www.idofluk.com/elephant
Brooklyn, NY Just look at that picture. How adorable are they?! Estelle and Ido of Elephant Parde met at an 80s party in New York’s east village. The two instantly bonded over music and started recording last year. They used only PC-chat microphones and freeware audio software to make songs most often described as lo-fi dream pop. The product, Bedroom Recordings , was self-released this past April. "Riding In Your Car" [...]
