Elevado is a singer-songwriter duo composed of duel baritones, Brad Rhodes (vocals, piano, guitar) and Brent Shuttleworth (vocals, guitar). Both were independent, national touring artists that combined forces in Northern Virginia at the head of the 2020 quarantine. Through a process of woodshedding, they found their purpose and sound by embracing the deeper truths surrounding the unparalleled state of the world.

Having connected while working at an orphanage in Port au Prince, Haiti, Elevado explores the range between their singer- songwriter influences and real, autobiographical stories that reflect the depth of their own life experience. Brad and Brent have discovered the uniqueness of their collaborative efforts along their path to help connect the world by small acts of kindness, promoting sustainable social equality and reflecting on the values that matter to them the most. Elevado's inspiration is drawn from their favorite artists, writers and teachers expanding beyond the music industry: Eckhart Tolle, Brené Brown, Jon Bellion, Coldplay and One Republic. Their sound is grounded in dynamic and vulnerable lyrics brought to life by the colorful exploration of melody crafted within transcendent musical landscapes.
