Hailing from Toms River, NJ, Elevator Art's six members (Daimon, Jen, Joe, Liz, Maureen and Mike) create an infectious sound that is difficult to pinpoint. Perhaps it is in the multiple vocalists, or the range of instruments used that draw the listener in, but the result is music that is clever, and energetic, with a stage performance to match. By breaking the fourth wall between the stage and the audience Elevator Art will have you feeling like a part of the band in no time. An average performance includes witty lyrics, catchy guitar licks, keyboard solos, megaphones, party horns, flute, and engaging vocals from all six members proving the point that art is a verb. Elevator Art wields a timeless rock sound that will have even the most committed wallflowers tapping their toes.
“This is the band to see live. This is the pony to bet on. This is the stripper to marry. There is no lull in their live show, just pretty, driving sound that surprises as well as pleases the aural palate. Their energy will make you cream your little indie panties.”
Tornado Allie - Just Shore Girls
“Elevator Art is a beautiful mix of rock and pop with a peppering of detail to every note, lyric and style.

“Elevator Art mixes and mashes various genres into a stew of epic proportions—a generous helping of ‘70s arena guitar-driven rock, a smattering of ‘60s anti-war psychedelia, a pinch of Mars Volta, and a dab of Weezer and the Beatles, and you essentially have their self-titled debut album. Heck, there is even a Jethro Tull-esque flute solo.”
Emily S. Dunster - Elevate Difference
“The vocal dynamics between the two male voices and two female voices is right on the money here. You hear a perfect balance of tones and pitches as the five band mates bring their art form of music to life.”
Kevin Gross - South Jersey InTune
“Elevator Art does a nice job on this release of mixing several different styles of music to achieve their end sound along with producing vocal harmonies that melt together look a perfectly done grilled cheese sandwich, topping it all off with song subject matter that at times will get your thinking juices flowing as you maul them over.”
C.W. Ross - Music Blog
“Classifying a band this good is a moot point to you're best to turn it up and let the good times roll.

Brian Lush - Rock Wired Radio
“While each team member is an outstanding musician in his or her own right, the end result is a stellar presentation of invigorating rock music. And, while this East Coast-based band honors the club sound mixed with European threads, it is evident that these Tom River, New Jersey stars are capable of infiltrating any listener around the globe.

Melissa Kucirek - Suite101
“Elevator Art is a great first effort by a new band trying to break out. They are unique in their lineup, talent, and sound.”
Ben Oliver - Music Emissions
“It is the cohesive nature of Elevator Art that will garner the most fans; rather than dividing things up into vocals and musical sides, each element works off of each other to create something greater than the sum of pieces.”
James McQuiston - NeuFutur Magazine
“The fact that this band is breaking the mold by including four lead vocalists is irrelevant here because Elevator Art offers so much more in return. Their style can best be described as all-over-the-place rock with no set boundaries in place.”
