The beauty of great music is the ability for multiple layers of different genres to exist all at the same time and have their own unique spaces to thrive in. While many hit singles and artists in the pop and hard rock genres tend to dominate the charts, especially with the upcoming summer months in which so much music finds its footing, there are great genres within those larger genres that elevate and create much needed space for audiences to discover and become immersed within. One that has gained popularity in indie circles in recent years has been art rock, delivering poetic lyrics with soft yet pulsing tones that deliver a punch.

New Orleans based art rock band Across Phoenix looks to capture this tone with their latest single, “We Are Echos.” The single, fresh off of the “Dreaming Opaline” EP, is a beautiful blend of ethereal rhythms with equally angelic yet harmonic vocals that pierce the audience’s attention and keep them engaged. The unique quality of the band’s sound in this song feels like a unique mix of Kate Bush, Kerli, and Florence and the Machine’s funky blues meets alt rock sound, and yet encompasses their own art-house vibe that is soulful and compelling to listen to. 

Hauntingly beautiful and delving deep into the heart of the ways in which humanity houses echoes of the past and themselves deep within their hearts plays well with the loop-like factor behind the cascading rhythms that repeat so intrinsically. The balance of groovy melodies with an air of almost nostalgia-like reverence in the way the vocals were delivered and heartfelt and powerful tones made this a compelling single that fans of art rock will love.
