Neon Trees Drummer Elaine Bradley Appears In “I’m A Mormon” Ad

The global campaign brings exposure to the drummer’s music and her faith.

By Mike Romero

Provoโ€™s own Elaine Bradley, drummer of the popular Neon Trees, is now in an โ€œIโ€™m a Mormonโ€ campaign video – part of a mass marketing campaign for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. This video was released just weeks after Tyler Glenn, lead singer of Neon Trees, came out as gay in Rolling Stone magazine. Whether it was just coincidental timing or a way for the Church to take advantage of the Tyler Glenn news is unsure.

This isnโ€™t the first time a member of a popular band has been featured. Brandon Flowers, lead singer of The Killers, was also in a Mormon video back in 2011.
