Great Elk have a sound that seems to rise straight from the earth. Whether singer Paul Basile's lyrics are down in the mud, or soaring through the sky, this is a reminder of open spaces the band left behind in their native Alaska. Tracks like 'I'm Going to Bend" off debut LP 'Autogeography' are tell-tale reminders of how much we have in common no matter the landscape. See the band when they play Littlefield tomorrow night at 7:30 pm. - Mike Levine (@Goldnuggets)
