‘waking up’.
echo northstar is an Irish artist creating sounds from a sleepy southeast
seaside village and is currently in final stages of production on his debut ep
‘things I wish I could say’.
Collecting influences from Neil Young, Thom Yorke and John Lennon, echo
strives to carve out new ethereal pathways in composition and production.
‘waking up’ will be accompanied by an ambient B side, title to be announced.
'waking up' is “the essence of joy and destruction in childhood, finding an old toy and rediscovering the ancient secrets it withholds.”
Last summer, following the success of the 80s gothic dream pop of ‘silent fears’, echo touted a suitcase of songs on a UK & European tour at the invite of LA shoegaze band julie playing the Moth Club, London, YES Manchester, Artheater, Cologne and legendary King Tuts, Glasgow. In November, echo played his debut Irish show as support for Cruel Sister at the Grand Social, Dublin. A hometown show is on track for early spring.
Hear snapshots of echo unfurl out of a
landscape of fog into the hazy light of a
new year awakening on January 1st.
