High-energy, 5-piece, Reggae/Ska hailing from Northeast, PA.  Elephants Dancing hits that sweet spot between catchy and angsty, with the influences of Reggae, Punk, and Ska. Dual-led vocals, ripping horns, and a big live sound, are staples of their multi-genre identity. Known for their energetic live shows, passion for songwriting, and gritty DIY touring, Elephants Dancing has become an East Coast standout over recent years. 

 

Formed in 2015, Mike and Danny reunited on summer break and decided to start writing music together. The project started with the two spending time on the boardwalks of Jersey and Maryland and experimenting with songwriting styles and testing the waters. What started with a Singer-Songwriter/Reggae feel, over the next few years, blossomed to holster the upbeat and lively music the group creates today. Elephants Dancing has since supported acts such WAR!, Andy Frasco & the U.N, Bumpin Uglies, Ballyhoo!, Badfish, Tropidelic, Rome, The Wailers, Passafire, Kash’d Out, Joe Samba, Roots of Creation, and more.

 

After years of honing their sound, Elephants has released 2 full length albums, The Chronicles of Kevin & Ringo (2025) & Chill Like Penguins (2023). Their albums are dynamic, brimming with lyrical content, melodically captivating, and just straight up fun. The group, committed to growth and spreading their roots through the community, has been touring the East Coast heavy since 2023. Incorporating the talents of Dan Sperlein (Trombone), Adam Jonkman (Sax), and Nate Montella (Drums), alongside singers Michael Iorio (Vocals/Bass) and Danny Sales (Vocals/Guitar), Elephants Dancing is ready for the future and coming in hot. Stay posted for touring dates and new content.

 

Also we have soft bananas.

Sincerely,

Kevin
