Fundamental Elements mix a fresh blend of soul and pop/rock, with catchy song writing and remarkable musicianship to create songs that are making people take notice. Their tight, high-energy live performances have them being praised as one of the most promising and talented bands to come out of St. Louis. The Cycle We’re Living In is the much-anticipated follow-up to the widely acclaimed Untied LP. A culmination of hard work and a partnership with producer Stephen Leiweke, the new album represents a definite maturation of the band. More energetic sonically and thought-provoking lyrically, the new record is a bold statement of the band’s interpretation of the world around them. Two new musicians and the introduction of keyboards has added another dimension and texture to the already eclectic Fundamental Elements’ sound. Jorge Casas, a long-time bass player, producer, and arranger with Gloria Estefan and other renowned artists, makes an appearance co-producing the politically-charged song, “All Burns Down.” The incredibly tight rhythm section comprised of brothers Luke and Mark DeJaynes, together with the high-energy guitar playing of Joe McGill and the keyboards of Dustin Burggraaf, all make-up the foundation of Fundamental Elements. But it’s the sweet, soulful voice of lead singer Russ Mohr, coupled with his tasteful trumpet lines, that truly communicates their soulful music. Drawing comparisons to artists such as Stevie Wonder, Maroon 5, and Jamie Lidell, Fundamental Elements consistently amaze crowds in venues across America. An ever-growing resume of accomplishments include pairings with the likes of Rihanna, Matisyahu, Ozomatli, Bob Schneider, The Dirty Dozen Brass Band, Three 6 Mafia, The John Popper Project, The Spin Doctors, Matt Wertz, and Will Hoge (among others).
