Enchanting Folk Pop / Rock album by the colorful ECHO BLOOM. After bouncing between Washington DC, Los Angeles, and San Francisco, ECHO BLOOMs founder KYLE EVANS eventually caught the muse he was searching for in Berlin. Completely submerged in the German culture, Evans found inspiration in dusty libraries along the Spree and long, quiet bike rides through the city. After a few months, he left Germany with material for three records. Because each album seemed to fi t into slightly diff erent genres, EVANS began thinking about them as diff erent seasons, diff erent countries and finally, different colors. ,Blue" would be the more Folk oriented of the group, ,Red" (to be released in 2016) would be more Country Rock, and ,Green" (to be released in 2017) would be more classic Pop. Finally taking root in Brooklyn, EVANS drew on his diverse background, including a stint focusing on electro-acoustic recording, a home-grown love of 1960s Surf Rock, and a deep and abiding passion for RODGERS and HAMMERSTEIN musicals to create the intricately layered and carefully composed tracks of the albums. The group continued to blossom into a robust touring ensemble visiting Europe the first time in 2014. That quintet adds AVIVA JAYE on alto vocals and piano, STEVE SASSO on tenor vocals and banjo, JASON MATTIS on bass, and JOSH GROVE on electric guitar.
