Echoes de Luxe shows are about to get a lot more exciting. Shown are two pars and a strobe, with a programmable foot controller to call up lighting scenes. Not shown is an 8-light bank with flood, music, and strobe effects. Maybe a fog machine will join in later....

We’ll be testing these out in our rehearsal studio to be ready for our gigs in October. Along with these, we’re working in other elements to make our shows more “multi-dimensional”. Should be fun.

Les Deux just asked us back to perform at their weekly Rock Mondays event next Monday the 21st. We didn’t know what to expect when we played their last, but the sound was far better than we imagined, and when you play to a place that packed, the energy is infectious. A fun show all around.

If you dare to brave the Hollywood mayhem, it’s worth it….Again, the show is free with this flyer, and it's a really good idea to get there early, not just for the open bar.

After this past string of local shows, we will be going away for a little while. We'll be holing ourselves up in the studio, finishing new songs and revamping our live show. We've always had the desire to bring in added elements to our set, and have been designing a portable lighting rig to bring to shows. We'll be unveiling it at an as-yet unannounced venue, so stay tuned.

In other news, we have decided to make our eponymous debut EP available for free download. Just clickity-clack on the album cover below and you'll be directed to our Bandcamp site.

News: Echoes de Luxe Song of the Week: "The Ride"

Mon, 03 May 2010 00:00:00 -0800

We’re all immensely proud of this tune, and became even more so when it was hand-picked for airplay on Nic Harcourt’s weekly radio show on 89.9 KCRW.

It’s a song we feel captures every element of the band-mood, melody, texture, emotion, and energy.

Download it along with the rest of "The NotreMonde Demos" for free.

the last time that i had seen her face
she took a walk out to her favorite place
she had on her leather jacket a yellow purse and her special locket
the last time that i had seen her face

some say that she has run away
some say she’s with another boy
either way i’m left here broken
bruised and battered, sobbing choking
thinking of the times i’d seen her face

i know i don’t have to be alone
'cos in my dreams she is coming home
i’ll look in her eyes and her knowing smile
her voice in my head says “it’s been a while”

several days later they continue the search
they’re breaking in teams now
when all of a sudden they’re running through town
they’re ringing the church bells
somebody found her locket buried in sand
under the playground
as soon as they told me i couldn’t stand
they’re ripping my heart out

News: Happy Record Store Day!

Sat, 17 Apr 2010 00:00:00 -0800

Get out there and support your local independent record store! Buy an ALBUM to cherish forever, one that won't go away when you spill Jolt cola on your hard drive while staying up for 3 days playing WoW....but it might go away when you split with your girl/boy and they throw everything you own into the street...But don't let that stop you!

I (Richard) hold this day close to my heart. Literally the day after graduating high school I began working at my favorite indie record shop, Bull Moose Music, and continued to work there for the better part of 4 years. While all my friends were in college, I was running a record store. That experience has been one of the most rewarding in my life. Besides opening my eyes to more music than I could ever absorb it instilled in me a love and appreciation of the record store community that I hope will thrive the world over. Any time I walk into an indie music store, no matter where I am, I feel like I am home..

AND-it was news to me, but my old boss, Chris Brown, apparently STARTED Record Store Day. How about that?.....So here's a goofy video of him showing off all the special releases that bands like the Rolling Stones, Them Crooked Vultures, and the Beastie Boys are offering in honor of this special day. He really hasn't changed a bit.

As we get ready for tonight’s show at Bordello in downtown LA (we’re supporting pals Socadia for their ep release party), we are ecstatic to report that the final mixes of the NotreMonde demos are complete!

We’ll be giving away some of these songs tonight, and are readying a web page for their easy download and distribution. We’ve got big plans for this year, and are thrilled to have a collection of music that shows off what we hear in our head.

It’s been a lot of hard work, and we’re proud to say it was all done “in-house.” We were adamant about not spending a dime on this project so we could save our hard-earned (and scarce) money. This means we pass the savings on to you!! These songs will all be given away for free, though we may ask for an email address. Hope that’s not too much to ask….

First things first, we’ll play our first show in some months, then tomorrow we’ll get these songs posted so you can hear them.

Now, off to rock…

ok, we’ll admit it….these recent “demo” recordings are taking far too long. In fairness we should never start a project during the holidays, as it is inevitable that we will have to take breaks and cram studio time in around everything else that is going on. That said, what IS recorded is sounding superb (if we do say so ourselves) and we are all impatient and anxious to get it done. The goal for TODAY is to post that near-complete version of “You, I, Me” replete with vocals for everyone to hear.

Just a quick announcement that the first gig of 2010 has been booked. We will be performing at Socadia's EP Release Party at Bordello bar in Downtown LA, February 24. We have known their drummer Dusty for some time now and they're a great band, so check them out. Incidentally a very early lineup of Echoes performed at Bordello many many moons ago. Now for the real thing....

News: Recording Update

Tue, 05 Jan 2010 00:00:00 -0800

As of today all keyboard parts have been laid down. It's now up to Richard to track vocals for the remaining songs and finish his last-minute guitar overdubs, then it's on to mixing. It seems the band has been able to stick to the schedule they laid out in December, which means everything should be mixed, mastered, and ready for download by the end of January. We're looking into easy ways of downloading all 8 songs at once to save time. Barring that they will still be available the same way "Astronaut" is here. Just click the mp3 icon next to the song in the player and the download should start automatically. (Help yourself if you haven't already...)

Everyone is thrilled with how these songs have come together in the studio, and we all can't wait to share them with the world. What better way to start 2010 than by giving away a free record???

Over the holiday break Richard will begin tracking vocals, and after that it is keys and some last minute overdubs and we're finished.

We're thrilled to share the songs with everyone, they're sounding better and better each day.

Be well! We wish you all a safe, happy, and relaxing holiday season.

Hello

These days finds us seriously looking into our recording options for releasing the next batch of songs. For those who have caught our live show lately you have heard some of the new stuff We have been getting great feedback on it-it's very encouraging! The new tunes work to "fill in the gaps" on the EP, and also see us pushing ourselves in new directions. Regardless we really want to see a release before year's end, and are working hard to make that happen.

In other news we are currently booking as many shows as we can over the next few months. We are sticking to So. Cal. right now, but as things progress we will start reaching out to our friends in San Fran and the Northwest, Vegas, Arizona, etc. A true goal would be to play our old haunts in New England, which we left so many years ago, but never really "left behind."

New merch is also on the way, and we will have shirts and posters for sale on the site soon! (we hope)

*PLUS* good friend Todd Newman (a familiar voice to all "Dark Matter" listeners) is editing together a live video of "The Price of Love" from the footage he shot at our show 7.19. Should be finished and put online asap!
