Mount Saint Elias is a 5-piece indie-rock band based in Oakland, CA. Their expansive sound blends the organic tones of acoustic guitar and harmony-laden vocals with distorted electric guitars, lo-fi drum machines and analogue synths.

Lucas Lawson is a young singer/songwriter who grew up on a farm just north of Santa Cruz, California. Lucas’s upbringing on an organic farm exposed him to the balance and harmonies that all living things have to offer. At a young age, Lucas began attending bluegrass barndances on the farm, where he first learned to play the guitar alongside local group, the County Line Pickers. When those sadly came to a halt in March of 2020 due to the threat of a growing pandemic, Lucas found himself writing songs more than ever. A few of those songs he recorded and produced himself to form his debut EP: Revisited Harbor.
