Genre: Folk

Echo Bloom is an orchestral folk group hailing from Brooklyn, NY.  Touring in support of their new album 'Blue', released May 14th, the group has been described as 'like Edward Hopper put to music - dark, sparse, and haunting'.Come join us for a very special evening on June 7th, where we'll be performing at Way Station as a duo.

"It’s difficult to adequately describe the spectacular sound Kyle Evans manages to evoke under the moniker of Echo Bloom. Utilizing little more than a grouping of magnificent voices, and coupling them with barebones instrumentation, this ensemble offers proof positive that more can be done with less. Consequently Evans and company provide a stirring and soaring series of songs that can’t be defined by any word other than “awesome.” There’s a reverential quality that sweeps through the acapella opener “Annunciation” and continues to grace the eight tracks that follow. Credit this imaginative arranger with ensuring a subtle sound that emphasizes celestial harmonies, thoughtful melodies, a theatrical flair and high ambition. Clearly, originality is Evans’ strong suit, and with Blue he’s made a masterpiece." - Lee Zimmerman, No Depression
