about
Black Elk Peaks is a conglomerate of Zach Taylor (guitar) and Jarrett Gilgore (drums) from Doylestown. Gilgore--notably a saxophonist--makes his debut on drums as Taylor--notably a pianist--makes another debut on guitar. Black Elk Peaks is a departure from the typical groups Gilgore and Taylor play with. Started in Winter of 2010, Black Elk Peaks is in the process of recording an EP and playing shows all across the U.S. What the press is saying: "Just what the world [fucking] needs: another noise duo." -The Wire "Black Elk Peaks made me come in my ears." -SXSW "Two young men embark together on an exploration of their small town Pennsylvania surroundings and produce a truly American soundscape." - National Public Radio "Either I've got green ears or you, my friend, have stumbled upon a--shall i say--stylistic niche that you can capitalize on." -Samuel Wappler (Village Voice) "3.8 - a contrived derivative of indigenous music/Pavement" - Pitchfork.com User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
