Elephant Sessions are a multi-award-winning band from the Highlands of Scotland who have become one of the standout names in contemporary folk. Blending trad melodies with heavyweight basslines, drums and electronic textures, they have built a sound that feels rooted in Scottish music but pushes well beyond its usual boundaries. Their four studio albums include All We Have Is Now (2017), What Makes You (2019) and For The Night (2022), with All We Have Is Now and For The Night both winning Album of the Year at the MG Alba Scots Trad Music Awards.
On stage, Elephant Sessions have earned a reputation for intensity, groove and sheer drive, winning Live Act of the Year at the MG Alba Scots Trad Music Awards in 2018. Over the years they have played major events including Glastonbury, WOMAD, Celtic Connections, SXSW and Byron Bay Bluesfest, taking their electrifying take on folk to audiences across the UK and beyond.
