Kumquat Mae

Former Elf Power bassist and song writer, Bryan Poole, left the band a year ago to record his own psychedelic pop songs and his new songs sound amazing! We introduce his new sound with a five song E.P. entitled Kumquat Mae. The Late B.P. Helium has emerged a skillful song writer as Kumquat Mae is jaunty, fun, with great lyrics ?something along the lines of the Kinks, Village Green Preservation Society. Overall, references can also be drawn to the vocal styling of George Harrison.With a variety players moving in and out of the lineup, The Late B.P. Helium, operates like a jazz combo at times. This is intentional. Bringing dif-ferent multi-instrumentalists together where players can move from instru-ment to instrument to help create a broader palette for the songs.B.P. has been a member of numerous other Elephant 6 bands including Elf Power, Olivia Tremor Control, Of Montreal, and Great Lakes and has toured and recorded with all of these bands.
