Is it mimics the Erlang behaviour?

Reminds me a lot of Elixir actually. I'd really prefer a purely functional language with LISP syntax. Does anyone know of any? I find it easier to understand than Haskell..
There's also Shen: http://shenlanguage.org/
Is Clojure close enough? Or perhaps LFE (Lisp-flavored Erlang)?
