Official Release of Find North
(Monkey Rock Records)
Tuesday, September 6, 2011
The ambient, indie rockers ECHOREV are set to release their debut album, Find North, tomorrow, Tuesday, September 6, 2011. Describing their music as “both a form of accessible pop-music and an eclectic, not-so-traditional mix derived from all of our individual influences,” ECHOREV sets out to use their diverse backgrounds in order to create their own recognized sound.
The worldwide trio consists of Johnny Nicholson from California, Jörn Bielfeldt from Germany, and Ann Driscoll of Ohio. Their home ties across the globe have given them a diverse mixture of inspirations that have created a new blend of indie rock music, crafted with instruments like the guitar, synthesizer, button-accordion, and processed drums.
Beginning as just Johnny and Jörn in 2009, it was the help of Ann’s vocals, songwriting and multi-instrumentalism that allowed them to truly define their sound. With influences ranging from Neil Young to Andrew Bird, and even Nirvana, ECHOREV has been able to harness a wide variety of inspiration to create their debut album, Find North, which marries, “classic emotional storytelling with texture and abstraction.” ECHOREV’s future promises to be exciting and ever changing as they continue to break and experiment with musical boundaries,
