Big Echo Released: 09/03/10 by The Morning Benders
Buy Big Echo from iTunes or Amazon.The Morning Benders’ new album, Big Echo, opens with the warm crackle and pop of a needle hitting vinyl, before the swooning orchestration sweeps in and carries you away to a time when life was more carefree and natural. A lush, big-hearted collection of songs rooted in the greatest traditions of American songwriting, Big Echo incorporates symphonic pop, a Wall of Sound production aesthetic, and sunny harmonies as told from the point of view of 4 kids in their early 20’s from Berkeley, California.
Recorded in several smaller sessions spread out over 11 days Big Echo was self produced by Chu with the mixing being handled by both Chu and Grizzly Bear’s Chris Taylor (Dirty Projectors, Department of Eagles).
