Echobelly are a British/Swedish indie band. They were brought to prominence after much praise by singer Morrissey who asked them to be the opening act on his tour. Singer Sonya's vocal style has also been compared to Morrissey's. They briefly peaked during the Britpop craze of the mid-1990s.
Looking back over the history of popular music it's often the case that the big records come in from the peripheries. While established career bands keep going on momentum, occasionally making a major statement, it's the margins of the mainstream that allow artists to invent and re-invent. If anyone needs an explanation as to how come Echobelly have just made an album as breathtaking as 'Gravity Pulls' they need only look at the circumstances of its creation, away from the treadmills of time and money.
