Elk the Moose, a folk/roots band with reggae and blues influences has a collection of songs that invites you to go deeper into your being, put your ear to the earth and ask questions. Their music is medicine for heart and soul, presenting themes of hope and light equal in strength to the feelings of despair that emerge as we grow increasingly aware of the state of affairs in our world. The lyrics paint an honest picture of the era in which we find ourselves. 

Yet there is medicine in the truth – even if it is tough to swallow. Throughout their catalogue, these themes are woven together and questions emerge. It’s almost as though we can begin to hear the voice of our soul more clearly as we let the music in. The intensity of the lyrics is balanced well with the reggae-infused folk soul melodies that carry them. Each song is a gem on its own and together the music becomes both a reference point and a compass, as it shows us clearly where we are and then guides us towards understanding.
