Echoes, formed in the late summer of 2010, are an ambient post-hardcore band from Southampton, UK. Having released their debut album "Transcendent", they have dates planned to support the release and are hoping to secure a mini tour towards the beginning of 2011. Having only been the final line-up since the summer of 2010, their music has developed already into a more mature sound that nods at their contemporaries. Since the start of the self-produced album the band have worked solidly to promote themselves and have made several connections with promoters and other bands. The biggest influences on the band are the likes of; Devil Sold His Soul, Rinoa, Saosin and Underoath. Upon the release of the album the band have been working on newer material which incorporates more of an original sound developed from the album sound. People who have heard their album all share the same view that the band has an extremely mature sound for their age, Hadley Keenan wrote: "...Encompassing an insane amount of musical maturity and patience for a new band, Echoes craft out perfect, sweeping soundscapes that is a must see for fans of Devil Sold His Soul, Bossk and Rinoa." Jayne Bonnie wrote: "…its refreshing to see a band putting some thought into the music they're making and talking honestly about it you know? You guys have done everything right so far. You're not in it for scene-points, there's just such integrity behind what you're doing man, its something I aspire to do in my work too so, respect to you."
