Echoes was formed in 2006 by Derek and Ron who have a shared love of progressive rock music, which doesn't really get played in the South West Wales area by many bands, and we decided that this needed to be remedied. So we put together a band to see how this sort of music was received in the area, and thus Echoes was born.
We started out playing a mix of cover versions of classic tracks by bands such as Pink Floyd,
Genesis and Mountain and solo artists such as Peter Gabriel and David Bowie. Whilst we enjoyed
covering classic rock material, we also sneaked some original material into our set list. Derek and
Ron realised that our original material was getting as good a reception as the classic covers,
so we decided it was time for the challenge of putting together an all original set list
inspired by the great progressive bands.
