“Hollow World” Elephant Stone

Northern Transmissions' 'Song of the Day' is "Hollow World" by Elephant Stone
“Hollow World" by Elephant Stone

“Hollow World”, is the title-track off Elephant Stone’s forthcoming release and features Rishi’s 9-yr old daughter, Meera, on vocals. The full-length will be available on February 14th. Elephant Stone, play their next show on November 7th in Tempe, Arizona.

The Montreal band features Rishi Dhir (vocals, bass, sitar), Miles Dupire (drums), Robbie MacArthur (guitar) and touring member Jason Kent (keys/guitar). Elephant Stone has released five albums and toured extensively. Dhir has collaborated with indie rock icons (Beck) and legendary cult bands (The Brian Jonestown Massacre) and is a member of psych “super-group” MIEN (ft. members of The Horrors, The Black Angels).

From Rishi Dhir:

I’m sure I’m not alone in this sentiment. If social media has taught us anything, it’s that there are a lot of unhappy people out there who are trying to find a way out. They are looking for meaning and something to believe in… or nothing to believe in… We all want the same thing, but are trying to achieve it in different ways.

With this in mind, we wrote and recorded our 6th full-length, Hollow. I set forth writing a song-suite telling of a world of unhappy souls who have lost connection with each other. The storyline touches upon the plundering and poisoning of their home, the elite, demagogues, false idols, the truth as seen by children, and, ultimately, the fight for the survival of their species. “Hollow World” is where it all begins.
