Elephant, the musical vehicle of Dundalk based multi-instrumentalist Shane Clarke, has bounced around the hallways of avant-garde folk, vaporwave, chamber-pop, all the way to Eno inspired 80's gothic romance and beyond. A balancing act few artists could pull off without being questioned as to what exactly is their style? Yet Clarke has negotiated the arduous terrain by always staying true to his idea that an artist should just get out of the way and let the music become whatever it is meant to become...be that a trashy electronica tune, or a ghostly synth-wave number...never try to mold it into whats considered your genre, genre is a cage. Music is fluid. You are only as old as you feel. Shane turned 40 this year...
