"The White Elephant Sessions" is a rarities and demo version album by American Christian band Jars of Clay, released in conjunction with the band's third studio album "If I Left the Zoo". Several of the tracks come straight from the demo recording sessions for "If I Left The Zoo", entitled the "Tweed Horse Sessions".

The title and cover

The title is a play on the fact that a white elephant is a rarity, and the cover of "If I Left the Zoo" had a grey elephant on it.

This album depicts a similar cover, except that the background is primarily red where "If I Left the Zoo's" background is predominantly blue and the elephant on the cover of this album is white and not grey (and the elephant is facing the other direction).
