^{Before becoming the front-woman for Land of Talk, Elizabeth Powell performed as a solo artist as well as in many bands, at one point performing under the name ELE_K*. She began writing music at the age of fourteen while she grew up in Guelph, Ontario. She enrolled in the jazz program at Concordia University where she met Chris McCarron and Mark Wheaton with whom she formed Land of Talk. Eric Thibodeau replaced Wheaton on drums in May 2007 to complete a new lineup.}

Elizabeth Powell announced during a performance that the band would be going on hiatus after their tour with Broken Social Scene. The band did not in fact go on hiatus, but instead Chris McCarron left (amiably) to play guitar for The Dears. He was replaced by Joe Yarmush, and the band announced a West Coast tour for 2009.}
