Band Bio

 

 

 

 

 

Echotape was formed in 2011 by a group of like-minded guys
from the music scene in a small, off-the-map town in the South of England.

Living together in their own studio and flat, the boys set about getting their music heard
from all corners of the globe. Their sense of adventure has seen the band perform
from Hollywood to Holyhead, Moscow to Madrid. Feature in London’s Tate Gallery,
have naked stage invasions in Dublin, and jam onstage with Carl Barat of The Libertines.

Their DIY approach was featured in Sky News' report and interview with the band on the
DIY ethic amongst new artists in November 2013. Their single "We Should Feel Like We Are In Love", trended on Sound Cloud after release in April 2014, clocking over 100,000 online plays through self-release,
and a sold-out limited edition run of 500 CD singles.

This also saw the band invited for a studio session with BBC Introducing South, and spend the summer on the festival circuit at the likes of The Great Escape, Liverpool Sound City and Blissfields.

 

 

 

Band members include;

Marc Burford, Dan Bowman; Dan Morris and Mike Burford

 

The song we have chose to do, Whiskey Bar, has been described as

 'An infectious, uplifting indie banger filled with passion and energy.'

Lead singer Marc Burford describes the track by saying,

 “We wanted to create a song with a party vibe that gets people excited. To jump around, let go and enjoy yourself”.

 

The band themselves are described as;

 

 'Fag-smoking, beer-swigging, string-strumming, floor-stomping, sweat-mopping, head-banging, , hip-shaking, good time rock n roll!.. the indie track of the year!' - Repeat Button

'This is one of those top drawer songs that sees everything fall into place from the off. 10/10' -U&I Magazine
'a pumping, feel-good, indie-rock anthem' - Rogue Magazine
'a powerful yet controlled riot' - Fortitude Magazine
