About Paul Basile of Great Elk
Paul Basile is the frontman and primary songwriter of the acclaimed Brooklyn band Great Elk, who recently released their debut LP Autogeography. Autogeography is a collection of rock songs grappling with the idea of "home" - the struggle to find one, and above all, the indelible connection between identity and place. With a striking voice - at times a delicate whisper and at times a brave, vocal weapon - Paul Basile writes "rustic rock anthems worthy of Band of Horses or My Morning Jacket". It is rare to find someone who can sing and write in such prose, while preserving the raw experience of the American man. Like the ballads of Ray LaMontagne, the songs are strong, emotional and stirring.
