Los Angeles-based alt-pop quartet Echosmith has announced the release of their debut album
Talking Dreams, out October 1 via Warner Bros Records. The band is currently crisscrossing the country on the Vans Warped Tour. Originally slotted for only the first half, Echosmith’s overwhelmingly positive crowd response caused them to be added to the entire run. The Clea DuVall-directed video for the album’s title track premiered today on Alternative Press:
A special Talking Dreams album pre-order kicks off today on www.echosmith.com. Fans who pre-order the album will immediately receive an exclusive three-song digital Summer Sampler, which includes album tracks “Talking Dreams,” “Cool Kids” and “Come Together.” Check out videos for “Cool Kids” and “Come Together” here: www.youtube.com/echosmith
Echosmith, which consists of Sierota siblings Jamie (vocals/guitar), Sydney (vocals/keyboard), Noah (vocals/bass), and Graham (drums),recorded Talking Dreams with producer Mike Elizondo (Tegan and Sara, No Doubt, Maroon 5), who signed them to Warner Bros. with WBR chairman and fellow producer Rob Cavallo. The brood grew up in a musical household, sharing a love for playing instruments and listening to bands as varied as Coldplay, The Smiths, U2, Joy Division, and Fleetwood Mac.
Although still newcomers, the band has been receiving effusive early praise. Alternative Press selected them as one of their “100 Bands To Watch in 2013,” Seventeen called Sydney’s voice “stunning” and MTV recently declared them a “Buzzworthy Obsession.” After Warped Tour, Echosmith will head out for a string of dates with Owl City, and will remain on the road through the fall. Look for them in a town near you.
