Members: John Davis (11), Chris Richards (4), Dan Chu, Alex Ficker, Ian Chu

The Elusive was formed in the summer of 1997. Following the breakup of their band, Corm, Alex Ficker, Dan Chu, and John Davis decided to start a new band that would tour that summer with only a demo tape to sell. Rounded out by Ian Chu and Chris Richards, the band wrote 6 songs and hit the road for some shows in the midwest. Always meant to be a short-term project, the band split in April '98. Davis and Richards went on to play music together in Q And Not U and Paint Branch.
