| "On Streets That Know" album launch show at The Victoria, Dalston |
The 11-track album was around two years in the making, starting with just me working on my own with a USB mic and eventually resulting the in the formation of Echo Pressure, funded via stints in a shipyard, a bar and as a security guard at the Olympics.
The album features contributions from more than ten musicians, and sums up the textural and lyrical obsessions of a young man who has listened to a lot of drone, dancehall and indie rock and also been to a lot of pubs. It was mixed with the collaboration of Tim Kramer who was a vital asset in creating some of the thick, delay-soaked soundscapes you can hear on the record.
In the last year the band and I have been gigging regularly in London, apart from when I developed vocal nodules and had to sit a couple months out (now healed!), we put on a residency at The Stag's Head where we invited a lot of our favourite bands and DJs to play, we've been working on music videos (which you can see here) and we flew out to Madrid in the summer to record a new EP on some beautiful 70's instruments (coming out September).
As we now look to the future, and begin recording on a new album, this is a good time to say, that if you have enjoyed what we've been doing over the past year and a bit, and I hope you have, then get a copy of the album!
