This lovechild continues to grow on a diet of high quality ingredients consisting of a classical guitarist, a jazz vocalist, an electronic musician, a versatile bassist and a soulful percussionist.
Host Echo aspires to musical maturity, putting minds, hearts and souls together, tastefully blending every unique expression into a vast yet singular sonic experience.
Involvement in the live music community is the foundation. Initially there were three Woodbox Theater Events, organized by the band to raise funds for the Niagara Arts & Cultural Center, a non-profit community coalition of artists. Live benefit shows that followed include a concert for awareness of domestic violence and fundraisers for hurricane Katrina survivors in New Orleans and for the construction of a Peoples, Inc. respite house in Western NY. Performance slots at some of the most prestigious regional events in Western New York include "Thursday at the Square" in downtown Buffalo, NY, "Music is Art" held in Buffalo and "Tuesday in the Park" at Artpark in historic Lewiston.
After the release of their debut album, "Be Water", Host Echo held a 15-month weekly residency playing a martini bar in Niagara Falls, New York. During which, the band also managed to tour independently as far West as Chicago and East to New Jersey.
The band plays venues throughout the Mid-Atlantic, New England and the Mid-West United States and has enjoyed an excellent response from venue owners and concert goers alike. Host Echo now looks to build and enrich that circuit while expanding into the Southeastern U.S. and Western Europe.
"Be Water" is available on Compact Disc and through Digital Downloads. Also available are new songs from the "Song Cycle ep". Get music through CD Baby or iTunes.
Having completed their first original soundtrack and score for a feature film, Ken Consentino's "Break the Sky", Host Echo eagerly looks forward to more opportunities to marry music to images.
Always open to collaboration, please contact Host Echo via this page or e-mail Nick at Agentn121@aol.com and share any musical, booking and/or promotional ideas.
