Echoes

Echoes is a collectivist ensemble whose music pairs futuristic electronic sounds with focused improvisations to create a sound that is uniquely their own. Inspired by 21st-century ideals of cross-pollination and experimentation, the group augments its already unorthodox instrumentation with a variety of electronic instruments, loops, and triggers to explore new sonic and rhythmic territory together. Over the course of almost four years of touring and performing, their talents have brought them to venues all across North America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia. In August 2018, the band released its first EP, “Square Two,” and conducted an extensive tour of the West Coast of the United States. In early September the band completed a residency at the renowned Avaloch Farm Music Institute and recorded their first LP to be released in 2019.

Awards

Grants and fellowships from Avaloch Farms Music Institute, The Frank Huntington Beebe Fund for Musicians, and Oberlin Conservatory.

By Mark Saleski In our society, it seems like there's a constant battle between idealism and cynicism. A person will take a stand on a particular issue, and no matter how quietly they do it, there is always an opposing force with the can of hot tar at the ready. It's a phenomenon that contributes to the growing blandification of the culture—one in which those with truly new points of view are looked at with a suspicious eye. As you ...
