Echosmith
For fans of: Paramore, We Are The In Crowd, Twenty One Pilots
EVERYONE in the music industry seems intent on turning Echosmith into the next star act.
The Los Angeles alt-pop quartet, who are all siblings, went straight on to the Radio 1 playlist with debut single Cool Kids and were named as both MTV’s 'Push Artist' and a VH1 ‘You Oughta Know’ priority artist.
That push into the spotlight seems to be working.
The video for Cool Kids already has more than 20 million YouTube views and the track has hit gold status in the States with more than 500,000 sales and reaching number one on the iTunes alternative chart.
Now, after recent tours with Grouplove, Portugal, The Man and Neon Trees, Echosmith will be headlining Manchester Club Academy on Saturday.
