Elmore is an American music magazine founded in 2005 by Suzanne Cadgène and Arnie Goodman. The magazine covers genres including roots, rhythm and blues, jazz, rock'n'roll, country, folk and Americana.[1] After ten years as a print publication, in July 2014 Elmore transitioned to an online format, supplemented by its monthly e-newsletter, the E-more.

Elmore's motto is: "Saving American Music". In 2012, the magazine was inducted into the New York Blues Hall of Fame.[2]

Content

The name of the magazine was inspired by bluesman Elmore James, although Cadgène also explained, "Elmore James was certainly a factor, but Elmore is a funky, American, down-home name. I don't know any 'Sir Elmores.'"[3]

Elmore feature stories take a wide and artist-centric perspective on the state of American music. Several features have been written by noted artists themselves, including Little Feat's Bill Payne and longtime rock photographer Paul Natkin.[4] Other feature stories include contributions from artists like Martha Reeves, the Zombies' Rod Argent and the Kinks' Dave Davies sharing their firsthand memories of their breakthrough years in 1964,[5] and well-known music photographers like Henry Diltz, Mick Rock, Bob Gruen, Ebet Roberts, Dick Waterman and Danny Clinch explaining what makes a great rock photo.[6]
