Native Elements are a collective of musicians and singers who have been jamming together in different groups for almost a decade. Living just miles apart from each other they have grown up in the culturally diverse music scene of the San Francisco Bay Area. After individual explorations with rock, jazz, blues, r&b and hip-hop, members of Native Elements have come full circle rooting themselves firmly in the tradition of roots reggae. They combine their many influences into an amalgamation of positive, vibrant music that speaks from the heart.

The powerful music of Native Elements has been emanating from Bay Area clubs and outdoor festivals, with Humboldt’s world renowned "Reggae on the River" festival, San Francisco’s "Reggae in the Park", and the "Monterey Bay ReggaeFest" being the most recent. They have shared the stage with a host of International acts such as Bunny Wailer, Burning Spear, Culture, Toots & the Maytals, Black Uhuru, Pato Banton, Lucky Dube, Eek a Mouse, Yellowman, Big Mountain, and Gregory Isaacs among others. Their contagious harmonies and "one drop" rhythms have won over praises from musicians, fans and critics alike. Even some of the most discriminating Jamaican ears have found Native Elements’ sound to be as authentic and genuine as their staple of music back home.

Thanks to the direction and wisdom of the legendary Twinkle Brothers, Ralston Grant and Norman Grant, the group has been able to capture a heavy dub sound complimenting their catchy rhythms. Their independently released, full-length CD features 9 original tracks with dub versions mixed by England sensations Derek Fevrier’ and Dub Judah. The diversity of singing and splashes of dub throughout the album injects a fresh addition of native, roots music to the reggae arena.

Native Elements was one of the first Reggae Band to use a Mystic Lion banner on stage during their live shows. They can also boast a band T-shirt designed by Mystic Lion and available by special order.
