Elliott BROOD

From the mountains of Utah to the trenches of Vimy
Ridge, Elliott BROODs songs have
travelled the gore and glory of history in equal measure for nearly a decade. With the stomp
and thrash of their early albums, Elliott BROOD carved their niche drawing from history and
memory. As heavy and harrowing the p
ast can be, for Elliott BROOD, it is also a generous
companion, giving the gift of appreciation for times of peace and grace.
With Keeper, Elliott BROODs seventh album, the trio deals with the past in more personal
terms. The title, which speaks to loya
lty and longevity, sets the tone for an album that explores
the strength of conviction, and how that strength is tested, again and again, over time.
Thoughts of worthiness and dedication, and their emotional flip sides, inform a collection that
sees the ba
nd exploring those battlefields much closer to home.
From the Polaris Music Prize short listed breakout album
Mountain Meadows
to the JUNO
Award winning
Days Into Years, the well -
traveled trio of Mark Sasso, Casey Laforet and Stephen
Pitkin have created
a body of work that is at once meticulous and boisterous, substantial and
entertaining
