TOP STORIES
ECHOES are an emerging band from Dublin Ireland consisting of Phil Culleton (guitar/vocals), Paddy Sweeney (vocals) and Peter Byrne (lead guitar). Along with live musicians Marty Canavan (bass) and Sean Delaney (drums).
Although ECHOES were formed in 2010, the bands history runs deeper than that. Culleton, Sweeney and Byrne began playing together in 2000 when the former schoolmates formed their first band Paragon. After the demise of Paragon the lads went their seperate ways; Culleton and Sweeney sticking together and performing acoustic gigs across Dublin under the name The Way Out Ones before eventually forming the short lived Whiskey Chasers.
After a short break the lads reformed under the name The Skins before settling on the name ECHOES with arrival of Peter Bryne who had spent his time away from the lads (as well as competing for a spot representing Ireland at The Winter Olympics 2010!) playing in bands such as Silken Thomas, Dumb and Drummer, and Stellar Jets - the latter of which he still plays with alongside drummer Sean Delaney.
After seeing an internet ad by the band, Marty Canavan checked out their myspace and duly signed up - boasting the experience of being "Mani" in The Stone Roses tribute act The Third Coming and also formerly being the lead guitarist in Northern Ireland act The Beat Poets.
Influences
Defining the bands sound is no easy task. ECHOES are influenced by many bands / artists such as The Beatles, Oasis, The Rolling Stones, The Kinks, The Who, The Strokes, The Stone Roses, The Libertines, Kasabian, Arctic Monkeys, Paul Weller, The Jam, Damien Dempsey, The Pogues, The Clash, The Smiths and Bon Iver to mention just a few.
A quick scan of ECHOES influences will tell you what you need to know about the band - catchy tunes are not enough, lyrics and content matter.
ECHOES are all about - great songs, great lyrics and great harmonies.
Whether it is with a full band or stripped down to an acoustic guitar, a great song should still be a great song.
