Elvis Depressedly are an American experimental pop project from Asheville, North Carolina.

[1][2][3] The band consists of former Coma Cinema frontman Mathew Lee Cothran and various collaborators.

Elvis Depressedly was formed in 2011 in Columbia, South Carolina, originally as a way for Cothran to explore his Bowie-esque alter ego of "Mickey", referenced in the early EPs as a way for him to confront and examine his fears and anxieties.

[18] In 2015, the band released a new album titled New Alhambra, which was proclaimed by Pitchfork to be "a utopian sort of indie-pop record", giving it a 7.3.

[26] Cothran has cited Emperor X,[citation needed] Prefab Sprout,[27] The Waterboys,[citation needed] The Jesus and Mary Chain,[28] Elliott Smith,[27] Primal Scream,[28] and Pink Floyd[28] as influences.
