Official announcement for our upcoming show at The Satellite, February 25.  
Doors at 8:30, we go on at 9 sharp.  

Playing with some fantastic bands, so make a night of it.

We have shows on the horizon.  Looks like February will see us back on stage.  Of course there will be new songs, what kind of question is that?

There's a video in the pipes for our new/unreleased recording of "The Ride"

This is me officially jinxing it.

Happy New Year everyone, we're looking forward to good things in our collective futures

It's that time of year for giving and whatnot.  Here's our acoustic ode to the Winter Solstice, offered here as a free download.  Enjoy and Happy Holidays!

There's been a lot happening in our world, even if we've been bad about updates....sorry

Mostly we've been writing new material and fine-tuning our light show for each song.  We were able to get some video from our last show at the Viper Room, and we'll piece together some snippets so you can see what all the fuss is about...

As for our new EP-we're still looking forward to its release but want to put something special together, and not have it be another hum-drum free mp3 download (although those are pretty good things).  

Music videos are in the works for at least 1 of the EP tracks.  We've always been excited to get these made and are collaborating with friends w/ cameras to make it happen.  Fingers crossed.

Also scoping vans for some short tours, to hopefully turn into long tours...

As ever, join our mailing list if you want to get our new music first and fast.  

Thanks for everything

There's been some shuffling of set times for tonight's show at The Viper Room.

Here's the updated set times:

• Doors @ 7:30
• Rapscallions @ 8
• Bullets and Snowfox @ 9
• Battle Tapes @ 10
• Echoes de Luxe @ 11

The band will be playing a free show at The Satellite tonight, closing out Big Black Delta's September residency.  It's our first show since producing the new EP, so there will be new songs and surprises.

Big light show extravaganza and guest singers.  Plus we cover one of our all time favorite 80's songs.  

See you there.  

*RSVP HERE*

We have put new single "Hold On" up on our music player for your listening pleasure.  Thanks to TK and the guys at Moheak Radio for giving it a spin.

There's no option to download it yet, but if you sign up on our mailing list you'll be the first to know when it's available.

Cheers...

We're in rehearsals for our first show in months, closing out Big Black Delta's residency at The Satellite.  We have a lot planned for this show with guest musicians and new songs (including a cover).  And for the first time EVER we will be performing "Ashen Year" live.  

The Monday nights are free, and we go on at midnight.  Come for all the other great bands, not the least Big Black Delta, and catch our set.  

We just got the final masters back from Peerless, so we can officially say the new EP is complete.  Stay tuned for release date news.

*UPDATE: You can now listen to "Hold On" here on our Music Player*

Tune in to Moheak Radio Thursday Sept 8 at 4pm to hear "Hold On",  a brand new unreleased song from our upcoming EP.  

Listen to the track and let us know what you think-hit us up on twitter @echoesdeluxe or write on our Facebook wall

Just a quick one to say that mastering of the new EP began yesterday, so we should have some tracks to share with you all very soon

Thanks for your patience!

A while back our fans helped us win Band of The Month in the DeliLA.  The prize was getting two songs mastered for free at Peerless Mastering in Massachussetts.  So thanks to everyone's help our EP will be getting the royal treatment from their chief engineer, Jeff Lipton.  Take a look at their client roster, we're pretty sure you'll find a couple favorites in there.  

Happy news everyone, the EP is done!  Yesterday's touch ups went great, and we can't stop listening to the mixes.  We'll let you know when they're ready to be heard.

We'll be heading back into Pulse tomorrow to do some last minute touch ups on our next release.  From there we'll be getting it ready for release ASAP.  Sorry, but we're picky!

Next up is more shows-we can't wait to get on stage again, and as usual we've got more new songs in the works.  We're livening up our set staples and kicking up our light show.

We've been sitting with the mixes from our recent session at Pulse Studios.  Since we tracked everything in just two days, we weren't able to get too in depth with the instrumentation and vocals.  There's a couple things we are dying to improve, and are hoping to do just that.  We're 90% happy with everything, but want to put our best work out there.  

Here's a clip of Brahm, doing his best to distract Rick from guitar overdubs.  Nice try...

Last weekend we were able to track all the drums, bass, and my rhythm guitars at Pulse.  This weekend we go back to finish up with Justin's guitars and keys, and lastly I will lay down vocals.  It's been an absolute dream working with Dave and Ryan, we can honestly say we've never sounded better.

Skip over to our Facebook Page for some photo uploads of Day 1.

Tomorrow we head into Pulse to start basic tracks for our new EP.  We'll have some cameras in there so that we can share some of the nonsense.  

We had a fantastic pre-production session last night with producer Dave Kushner.  His input is invaluable and thse songs are coming together really well.  Can't wait to get into the studio next weekend and start tracking!  

oh yeah this is where we're going:

We're knee deep in pre-production right now for our upcoming EP.  Arranging new songs, re-arranging old ones, tweaking sounds.  Fun stuff. 

Here's a peek at our custom light show while we perform "The Ride"

We're gearing up for two shows this week, and at the same time working on our upcoming recording schedule.  We just got some great news about a potential studio to use for our next EP, so fingers crossed we can make that a reality. 

A quick announcement to let you all know about our upcoming video blog series.

Every week we'll do our best to post a short video where we answer fan questions, share new music, and more.  Expect performances of our songs and covers requested by you.  

To have your questions answered and song requests received, tweet us @echoesdeluxe, write on our Facebook wall, or leave a comment below.

Here's Rick standing in front of the house in Portland Maine that served as Echoes' first rehearsal spot.  We were fortunate enough to have had neighbors that didn't mind the racket....
