  • Bio

    .. .. Elliot Jack are a four piece who mix together loops, samples, guitars and occasional vocals to make a lovely melancholic warming sound. Their songs are beautiful enough to warm the heart of cadaver. .. The lovely BBC have used their music on the uber-trendy Countryfile and elliot jack wrote the soundtrack for BBC short film 'Over the Edge'. You also may, or may not, have heard them BBC6Music and BBC Radio Bristol. .. elliot jack are proud to unveil a new ep called "I didn't know that that led to this..." The five songs can be heard above and you are very welcome to a copy if you'd like one. .. .. .. They also have some other lovely songs too - just drop them a note if you'd like to hear them! .. ......
