Ordinary Elephant writes compelling songs at the intersection of country, bluegrass, and folk. The duo, a married couple Peter & Crystal Damore, draws inspiration from artists like Gillian Welch, Guy Clark, and David Rawlings. Their beautiful harmonies combined with subtle instrumentation—mainly banjo, mandolin, and guitar—create a harmonious and surprising result: intense and layered songs that are still easy to listen to. It’s no surprise the duo was named ‘Artist of the Year’ at the International Folk Music Awards and counts Mary Gauthier among their biggest fans. With their penultimate album Honest (2019), widely regarded internationally as one of the best Americana albums of the year, they firmly established themselves in the international Americana scene.
