Known as Karabo in his southern African homelands, Joel Elliott utilizes music as a tool for healing, education, spiritual ascension, inter-continental connection and community growth. Within his music are anthems for the world to sing and spacious reflections from the sacred place where the river and forest meet the sea. JKE's 2016 release, Grow Within And You Shall Not Go Without, represents the first recorded assembly of his South African-based ensemble, Roots Grown Deep. The album met critical acclaim and lives on as a harmonic connection between spiritually ascending and land-based communities in Africa and America. His 2022 album Traveling Light is the first chapter of an audio epic trilogy called The Musical Ecology, which features 33 musicians representing 11 nations and countless tribes. rootsgrowndeep.com
