SunSquabi on Friday released “Elephant Song”, a new collaboration with Big Gigantic saxophonist/producer Dominic Lalli. The single marks the first new studio release from the Denver livetronica trio since the group’s 2020 collab with The String Cheese Incident, “Top Down“.

“Elephant Song” roars to life with Lalli’s expressive saxophone, mimicking that of the titular elephant. The expansive six-minute track goes through myriad moods from late-night radio through a massive synth peak from Josh Fairman and off into a fiery guitar solo from Kevin Donohue. This latest collaboration allows SunSquabi to further experiment with its time-tested formula, as Lalli’s saxophone acts as an instrumental frontman.

“Elephants represent luck, good strength, and loyalty,” Donohue said of the song that began as an improvised jam during one of the band’s early pandemic livestreams. “‘Elephant Song’ represents us sticking together and sharing the ability to write songs even though everything was shut down. It’s about realizing what you have and using your strength and the family around you, which is what elephants do. It felt like it needed a lead voice, so it was natural to include Dom. Big Gigantic was a big influence for us to start SunSquabi. We’re integrating the electronic side of things into hip-hop, funk, and rock.”
