Primary Element

We've been through it, and we're here to stay. Primary Element was born out of fire, quite literally in October 2003. Founding members James Harlow, Aric Erlandsen, and Chris Bojorquez tiredly said goodnight after loading their gear from a Halloween cover band gig in San Diego, California. The next day James Harlow's house burned in the Cedar Fires. In what is truly an Odesseus journey, Primary Element manifested itself in many forms, producing world class writing, musicianship, and performance of a diverse catalog.

We remember our past, and will never forget our first love. We will work daily to discover and bring music that is worthy, and honor the Primary Element. Founding members James Harlow, Aric Erlandsen, and Chris Bojorquez continue on with new up and coming drummer Travis Galarza. Along with their recently released "Constance EP" they bring a memorable live show, with passionate and polished performances.
