Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
While new to their K-State surroundings, the guys in Elemental are no newcomers to music. Aside from years of practice at their individual instruments, Eck and Peterson have continuously played in bands together for over five years in Newton, KS. Additionally, Regier's lyrics were slowly integrated into the duo's original music, and for over two years, Regier has made steady appearances on stage at live shows. All the while, Bassist Ben Gray played with his own slew of musicians over his many years of Bass experience. Eck met Gray at a party in Manhattan and asked if he'd like to hook up and play sometime with a few of Eck's friends. A week later, Elemental was born.
