bio

Waking Elliot is a female-fronted alternative rock band. After forming in late 2009, Waking Elliot immediately began establishing a strong Connecticut following. Even before the release of their debut EP Simply Pathological, Waking Elliot made significant waves in the Connecticut music scene. In May of 2010 they placed first in the radio 104.1 WMRQ Rock Show, and have been honored to have shared the stage with 30 Seconds to Mars, Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, The Pretty Reckless, Automatic Loveletter, The Graduate, and The Paper Tongues. Waking Elliots debut EP was released in late November 2010, and has already been well received by fans of the bands live performances as well as newly gained supporters. Word is spreading about the fresh sound Waking Elliot brings to the music industry as they continue to build a strong online following and a growing fan presence at their live shows. Frequently, Waking Elliot is compared to the successful female-fronted rock groups of the past decade. They have been aptly compared to the likes of Paramore, Evanescence, and Flyleaf, as their songs are both honest and memorable. Waking Elliot is unique to these groups, however, as they are fronted by not one, but two powerful female vocalists. Most notably, Waking Elliot is acknowledged for their commanding presence, and evocative vocals.
