"'Just a Party' rocks like an Aerosmith power ballad and 'Hot Cars' could be a Van Halen B-side.' - Mike Rosen-Molina, Synthesis Magazine
"Element 115 is among the most unique classic rock bands of all time. They tore it up with great tunes of the past mixed with new technology, an alien drummer named AL, gifted and talented musicians and true classic rock attitude." - Vision Arts & Entertainment Magazine
"I listened to this album a number of times to get into it more and discovered some neat song writing. I initially thought of the UK band 'YES' but on reflection Element 115 are definitely original." - Brian McMullan of Scotland Band C E IV

Element 115 originally formed in 1995 as an all original act
in the Phoenix area. Personnel changes occurred shortly after forming, and the
new group quickly recognized that the audience was most responsive (and got
up and danced) when the classic-rock tunes they loved were played. This newer
line-up appreciated that response and began focusing on writing tracks
which used the best aspects of the genre (harmony guitars, harmony vocals, tasty keyboard licks, meaningful lyrics, etc.)
Over the years, the position of drummer seemed to be the hardest to keep in
place, and the search for an extraordinary beat keeper ensued. While listening
to some signals from a SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) program,
the guitar player discovered an intelligent message coming from space. Tracking
that signal to its source, AL, a being from a world 40 light-years from Earth,
was found to be the originator of that message. AL had been listening to Earths
radio signals for some time and heard some rock music from the 70s and 80s.
He was immediately motivated to create a drum set and start playing along. He
sent a message back to Earth hoping one of these bands would hear him and let
him join. Naturally, AL got the position of drummer with the band, and the line-up
of Element 115 was solidified. Using a tachyon-beam technology from his home
world, AL plays with the Earthers of the band wherever they entertain.
Element 115 is ready with a complete stage, sound reinforcement, and lightshow
for any event, large or small. From opening for Tier 2 acts, to corporate celebrations to weddings, birthday bashes or high-school reunions, Element 115 has the song list (Element 115, Boston, Styx, Kansas, Tubes, Steve Miller, Bad Company, Eagles, and dozens more) and ability to get attendees singing, dancing, and having a great time. In fact, the band GUARANTEES a memorable event when they play.
We want our comments section to have YOUR comments about the music and the band. Large pictures and ads will be short-lived. If you're clever, we're sure you can figure out a way to integrate a small picture into a comment relative to the band.
Hey I am REAL proud of you Mike and all of Element115, I really do hope that all this publicity over Al gets you noticed into a major record deal...just do not forget us little people who supported you when you were nobody!
I love the clip from the upcoming Roswell 2008 documentary, except who's that crazy person with the alien antenna bopping around?! LOL I can't wait til you finish it! Please let me know as soon as I can buy a copy (hopefully autographed by Al!)

Hello! How are things? Hope all is well, and good. On fourth of July, I drove 100 miles to my relatives to celebrate, and through the whole trip there, I had you guys playing loud and proud!!! Hey heard you guys went and played at Roswell, sounds like it was indeed something to be reckoned with my friends. Until next time SHIZANGOINPRIU...
Wow your Roswell concert pics are amazing! All the photographers did a really nice job, and the captions are great too! I love looking at them, and you can know for sure that any time you're doing a concert within driving distance we'll be there!!!
Thank you for a wonderful festival and an even better week of hanging out with you all. Now lets kick this pooch in the butt and go over the top! Oh and Mike thanks.
July 5th, Element 115, the classic rock band from Arizona was one of the top venues of the UFO festival. The city of Roswell truly opens the door wide open for this band and gives them some respect. I was privilaged to be the opening band for this talented band and I was there for the whole show. The band keep the crowds attention. It also attracted the attention of the Albuqueque's "Daily buzz" TV and other media including CBS. Also Nina Hagen, a German Pop star was filmed and performed with the band for one song. Nina really knows how to draw attention to her talents and has an unbelievable vocal range. I can't tell who all the industry people that were there. But I meet a few and made some very good contacts. Michael, Carla and Jess were a pleasure to meet. Al was a little impersonal and I never really got to close. He seems to be all business and only shows up for the show. Jess is only 16 and is an excellent performer. This act is only going to get better and I predict it will soon go to perform on the international stage somewhere. Best of success to element 115. Roger
