Echolyn Press Release: February 4, 2008

Hello everyone!

We are excited to announce several news items from the world of echolyn.

News item #1:

With a tentative CD ship date for our 9^th studio release (title TBA) scheduled for early June, we hope to again deliver a CD full of fresh, innovative, and “100 proof” echolyn material. As of early February we are “4 songs in” and have found the intensity and vibe that we are known for and have, without a doubt, forged into areas we have not explored before. All of us are excited to see where the writing will take us. It is always an emotional journey and we look forward to conveying the finished product to you.

With hard work and tight deadlines we hope to be recording the album by April at Brett’s new studio called Area 602. www.A602.com or www.mm3studios.com, followed by mixing and mastering in May.

We will soon be updating our web site www.echolyn.com with video/audio clips and commentary of the writing, and recording process. Also a page will be set up (as we have in the past) that will include new press photos, and artwork for download.

As soon as those things are in place we’ll let you know.

News item #2:

“Cowboy Poems Free” re-release!! Finally, our acclaimed 2000 album will be available again! With ALL NEW ARTWORK, this album has been carefully and completely RE-MIXED and RE-MASTERED to showcase the power of the music and lyric.

News item #3:

NEARFEST 2008. Echolyn has been asked to play the 10-year anniversary of the greatest progressive rock festival around! Go to www.nearfest.com for all information.

Stay tuned for gigs!!
