The Elephant

The debut release by songwriter Bill Ludwig, “The Elephant” is at times light and whimsical, at others stark and honest. The songs are full of lyrical poetry and ethereal tones, while staying grounded in Bill’s humor and clarity of idea and theme. Moving seamlessly from folk to blues, ballad to lullaby.

Several of these songs were written with Bill’s three children in mind (“The Elephant”, “Mother Father”, “Sheltered”), and their playful imagination is immediately heard in this “family friendly with an edge” psychedelic-folk album. Other songs deal with age and relevance (“Twenty”, “You Don’t Believe”), loss and change (“Everything’s Easier (This Way)”) and every parent’s daydream of a weekend away without the kids (“Getaway”).

Beautifully packaged in premium materials – surrounded by Bill’s own artwork, w/fold-out lyric sheet, this is an album in the classic sense of the term, intended to be listened to from start to finish with a cool drink on a lazy day.
