“This is a good day, this is a good sign”
Even before Echosmith released their debut album “Talking Dreams”, the Los Angeles alt-pop band had been ascending by leaps and bounds. The Sierota siblings — Sydney (vocals/keyboard), Jamie (vocals/guitar), Noah (vocals/bass), and Graham (drums) — brought us some great songs including “Talking Dreams”, “Brights” and “Cool Kids”.
Certified platinum, “Cool Kids” dominated everywhere, charting in the Top 5 at HOT AC, Top 10 at Top 40, and in the Top 10 of the iTunes singles chart, plus Top 15 of Billboard’s Hot 100. The music video for the track racked up over 30 millions views on YouTube, and the new “Bright” video is set to follow in its footsteps.
In 2014, the Southern California-born quartet group were named both an MTV “Artiste to Watch” and a VH1 “You Oughta Know” Artiste. They were a break-out band at SXSW, where they performed at the MTV Woodie Awards and they were featured on the fourth season of MTV’s hit series “Awkward”, having their music showcased throughout and culminating with the band at the centrepiece of a storyline.
In the past two years, Echosmith has toured with everyone from Owl City and Young The Giant to American Authors, in addition to their two Warped Tour runs. They are now out on their first, full-scale headlining tour, continuing to win over new converts to their sparkling songs and dynamic live shows.
