BAND BIO:

The Nova Echo is an electronically driven space-age rock/pop band from Asheville, a city in the mountains of Western North Carolina. At its core, the music has infectious pop origins but combines powerful guitars, ethereal synths, and complex vocal harmonies to create a space age, post rock sound.

The band is made up of six individuals, all with their own unique backgrounds in music and performance. Front-man and songwriter Caleb Hanks has been playing music since he was a child and has been in multiple rock and pop bands with regional success in North Carolina. Around 2003, he started producing his own electronic pop music as a side-project and by 2007 had written and recorded three full-length solo albums, as well as numerous unreleased b-sides. In 2007, he decided to pursue this side-project full-time.

Hanks contacted his long-time friend and local music producer Evan Bradford to help him construct a rock/pop-oriented band around his electronic solo work. After a year or so of lineup changes the members were solidified, and the band is now made up of six individuals, all with years of experience playing and performing in other bands and projects. Hanks and Bradford handle front-man and guitar/synth duties respectively, while Will Arledge (guitar), Matt Hixon (bass), Lee Brooks (keys), and Jeremy London (drums) complete the band’s lineup.

During the summer of ‘09, the band went into the studio to record their self-titled debut album. With Hanks and Bradford at the production helm, the band set out to record music that could effectively compliment Hanks’ core theme: a lonely space traveler’s feelings on love, longing and companionship in the insurmountable distance of deep space. Despite the sometimes sobering lyrics, the album maintains a positive, upbeat vibe with messages of peace and hope.

The Nova Echo reentered the studio this past Spring, the product of which was a five song EP, entitled "Voyager", that was released in late August.
