Elephant Micah is a musical band or stage name of southern Indiana songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Joseph O'Connell.

Recording mostly at home, O’Connell has produced an eclectic body of work since beginning the project in 2000.

Elephant Micah's inconsistently available music has become a cult favorite among some lo-fi/indie and folk rock audiences.

In addition, he has issued several short-run CDs on his own LRRC (Luddite Rural Recording Cooperative) imprint,[2] also home to music by collaborator Jason Henn.

In 2005, Elephant Micah shared bills with Jason Molina's Magnolia Electric Company during a string of shows in the United Kingdom.
