Bang up to the Elephant

Bang up to the Elephant was formed when two member's of a local gospel choir realised they both had a background in professional music, touring Europe. Paul as a singer and lead guitarist and Andy as a Piano and bass player. After a couple of rehearsals they understood that chemistry was happening. 10,000 gigs between them and a passion for gospel harmonies makes the signature Bang up to the Elephant sound. The band play pop, funk and disco classics mostly from the 70's and 80's and the demos you hear is what you get, a studio quality live sound carefully mixed to sound balanced in a quiet setting or rich and full when turned up for a party crowd. The name comes from Victorian slang meaning 'wonderful, top notch, brilliant'. We love to put our own twist on songs too and will often drop the mix down to a big fat kick drum with the purity of three voices in magic harmony belting out a chorus.
