About Me


Hailing from Newark, Delaware, The Elk-Tones are a 4-piece surf-rock band with a sound that defines psychedelisurferbilly. Taking cues from classic artists such as Dick Dale and Link Wray, while also raising a glass to their contemporaries, Los Straitjackets and the great Reverend Horton Heat, The Elk-Tones move seamlessly through styles - weaving classic surf, rockabilly, jazz, and punk rock.
