The Local Rabbits: 1990–2001
Born in Montreal, Elkas spent twelve years as part of the alternative rock band the Local Rabbits, with whom he began playing as a teenager, in 1990. They released The Super Duper EP in 1993 and followed it with the full-length You Can't Touch This, in 1995. In 1997, they toured North America and performed as Neko Case's backing band on several Lilith Fair dates. Their second studio album, Basic Concept, came out in 1998, and in 2001, the band published their final record, This Is It Here We Go. The Local Rabbits subsequently disbanded, but they briefly reunited in 2007 to record a track for the Rheostatics tribute album The Secret Sessions.

Solo work: 2004–present
Elkas released his first solo album, Party of One, in 2004. Charlie Sexton produced his 2007 sophomore release, Wall of Fire. In 2011, Elkas published his third album, Repeat Offender, and in 2018, he issued the EP Lion, under the name Peter Elkas Band.
