About Me

Elysian is an aggressive rock band dedicated to melody-driven rock and intense, thought-provoking lyrics. We pull our song themes from the world around us and those situations that affect us. The band has played shows all around Texas and exclusively in Houston at venues such as Scout Bar, Fitzgerald's, Meridian and Engine Room. Elysian has shared the stage with national acts such as The Backstreet Boys, Lady Gaga, N'SYNC, Hanson, and Menudo. The guitarists have also appeared on the soundtrack to the movie "Left Turn Yield". What started out as a good idea back in 2001, quickly escalated into a sensation of passion and music. With a new line-up in 2009, and more material being pumped out daily, we're ready to bring this band to a whole new level.
