Elliot Minor are a classically influenced rock band from York, England. The group consists of Alex Davies (lead vocals/guitars), Ed Minton (vocals/guitars), Dan Hetherton (drums/backing vocals), Ed Hetherton (bass), and Ali Paul (keyboards).

Elliot Minor started as a duo, Alex Davies and Ed Minton, who met at school. They started as an acoustic duo and began playing covers of popular songs. In 2005, after they left Uppingham, and took a gap year to focus on their music. Davies bumped into childhood friend Dan Hetherton when they were both picking up younger brothers, and invited him to a band practice. Dan Hetherton joined as the band's drummer, and later they recruited Dan's brother, Ed, to play bass. Davies kept in contact with another childhood friend, Ali Paul, who joined as their keyboardist. They named themselves The Academy, though later changed the name due to legal reasons. Davies built a simple recording studio at his home, called Mavehole Studios, in which they started to record more songs.
