Elsewhere

Describing themselves as a “prog leaning alt/power-pop new wave band,” Boston based power trio Elsewhere’s latest single “Don’t You Believe Me Baby” – a dynamic cover of a long overlooked, previously unrecorded early 80’s Police song – has scored over 200,000 views on YouTube and landed the band a full page story in the Boston Herald. Their new EP Multi-Man includes three equally fiery originals penned by frontman and guitarist Michael Aroian. Elsewhere – whose members include Aroian’s longtime college pal Kevin Swaluk (bass) and kick-ass new drummer Adam Soucy – initially achieved notoriety for their 1997 album Outbound, which earned them slots at the College Music Journal (CMJ) Marathon and numerous showcases in NYC where major labels showed interest. The band later released the EP Perception in the early 2000s before achieving an international breakthrough with their widely acclaimed 1981 album in 2010. In addition to Belgium, where they received a write-up in one of the country’s biggest rock magazines (Rock Tribune), they became popular and received great press in Germany, Denmark, Norway, UK, Italy, Czech Republic and other countries – all while continuing to hold court at top clubs in their home base of Boston and NYC.
