About this project
It wasn't until the summer of 2010 that we - Kristoff Krane, Sadistik, and Bodi (formerly Alexipharmic) - all met one another, while on the Save Yourself Tour with our great friends Cas One and Eyedea. Traveling along the western part of the U.S., we rocked 12 cities and made some lifelong connections along the way. It was honestly one of the best adventures any of us have been a part of. A large part of what made the tour so memorable was the level of chemistry and camaraderie shared between each of us. While many life-changing events have occurred since the conclusion of the Save Yourself Tour, the bond we share has not diminished.
With that said, we decided it was past time to hit the road again, this time on a NATIONAL tour. Joined by our buddy Ordeal and some other special guests, we are going to move beyond the west coast - to the midwest and east coast - and back again. Every one of us have been hard at work on new material, and we are incredibly excited to share it all with you. Wanna know something cool? Those of you who come out to the shows will be among the very first to hear new songs from each of us.
And this is where you come in. In order for us to come to a town near you and do our thing, we've got to cover gas, lodging, repairs on Big Sal (that's the tour van), flyers, and a whole host of other expenses. In other words, it costs a pretty good chunk of change. Truth be told, a fair amount of the money will actually probably go to fixing Big Sal - she's got 200,000 miles on her! Car work is no fun. Since none of us have pockets like caves, we are requesting your support to make this tour as successful as possible.
It's also going to make it so that we can hit up more cities and get closer to YOUR hometown. We know how much of a trek it can be to get to cities that are 3-4 hours away to see a show, and we want to make it as close to home for you as possible.
In exchange for your contribution, you will be receiving some great benefits: exclusive compilations, guest lists to shows, albums, etc. Check out the pledge levels to your right for all the details. We are grateful beyond words to each and every one of you for your continued support of our music and messages, and promise to make this one of the most memorable, fun tours ever.
peace.love.respect.,
chris, alex, cody, and nick

Elephant Memories, LLC is a refreshingly unique take on the conventional record label. At its core is a foundation of socially responsible hip hop, influenced by revolutionaries of the past, to be a leading voice in the present and an inspirational movement for the future. Its guiding spirit is made manifest by the never-ending desire to create a global world that is more compassionate and aware than its current state. To that end, 50% of all revenues are donated to various charities.
