Biography
Yet one more outgrowth of the ever-expanding Elephant 6 family tree, Athens, GA-based psychedelic pop combo the Great Lakes began as the high school project of longtime friends Dan Donahue and Ben Crum. Multi-instrumentalist Jamey Huggins (also the drummer for local favorites Of Montreal) later joined the core roster, with Todd Kelley and Joel Evans also serving as frequent collaborators; the live Great Lakes lineup often expanded to as many as 11 members, among them the Gerbils' Scott Spillane and Of Montreal's Kevin Barnes, Dottie Alexander and Derek Almstead. The group's self-titled debut LP followed on Kindercore in mid-2000.
