Elonzo
Elonzo is an independent rock band based out of Rock Hill, South Carolina area. In the heart of the Carolina Piedmont, they write songs about everyday life: sitting around on the front porch, watching the train go by, loss of loved ones, childhood, their hometown and their dreams. Elonzo’s music represents some of the most classic elements of the Southeastern United States: earnestness, good story-telling, and an awareness of tragedy that never seems too far around the corner.
The band's sound can transform from stripped alt-country to a richer, more expansive vision that reflects the meaningfulness of the ties that bind us together. Mostly, it sounds like rock and roll.
==History==
Elonzo is a family band- Jeremy Davis and Maggie Bourdeau are brother and sister and the heart of the band. They grew up in Summerville, S.C., in a musical household. “We didn’t really play together, but we both always played music,” Davis says. The siblings formed Elonzo in 2008 along with Maggie's husband, Dan Bourdeau. The band is named after the siblings’ father, who died in 1992. The name was Dan’s idea — Davis says using his father’s name never crossed his mind. They recorded and released their first album "All My Life" in 2008. Bassist Dennis Contreras was added as they began playing live shows in the region, and in late 2009 they released a four song ep titled simply "EP". After that the band started working on their second full-length record "A Letter to a Friend", which was released in early 2011 to good reviews from local and regional critics. Contreras left the band and was replaced by Stephen Narron, and they put out a holiday ep titled "Be Released (It's Christmas)" at the end of 2011. Almost all of the tracks on these albums were recorded by Davis in his own house, and all were self-released. Elonzo have become a staple in the South Carolina music scene and are currently recording a third full-length album, tracks from which are being released on the band's website as they are finished. Some reviews have called their brand of rock "hard to pin down" but that's not what's important. As Jeremy Davis says, "We are a rock and roll band. We drink whiskey. We are not a folk band, or a “insert genre” band. We are loud. We want to come to your town, and we love you".〔
