Built around a powerful voice and hard-driving rock ‘n’ soul rhythm section, Asheville, NC’s Abby Bryant & The Echoes has secured a fast-growing foothold in the Southeast music scene.
Founded by Abby Bryant (vocals, keys) and Bailey Faulkner (guitar), the two formed the band out of distinctly different musical upbringings.
Listeners will find it hard not to hear similarities to some of the artists that inspire the two including currently touring acts Tedeschi Trucks Band, Grace Potter, and Sister Sparrow and The Dirty Birds. At the same time, one cannot deny that even with Abby Bryant & The Echoes’ youthfulness, the band connects to the roots of the music in the members’ hearts. Looking to artists like Etta James, Sam and Dave, and the integral Muscle Shoals sound to light the way, Abby Bryant & The Echoes carries its own soul-shining torch into today.
SPEEDSUIT is a rockin’, garagey, twangy gang playing original music featuring members Stephen Beckner, Ryan Jackson, Dan Jordan and Mark Myers. The band, hailing from Charleston, WV, plays a variety of original tunes, from country flavored rock to 60s pop to garage shlock. Stephen has been writing songs since the 80s, influenced by the Beatles, Stones, Kinks, Neil Young, Roger Miller, Elvis Costello, Wilco, Carl Perkins, well, pretty much everything.
