In recent weeks, Echosmith has been teasing plans to share new music.
Monday, the band officially announced the release dates for a new song and album.
The audio and official music video for new song “Goodbye” will arrive July 14.
“Goodbye” will appear on the band’s sophomore album “Inside A Dream,” which is due for release on September 29. The 11-track album is the follow-up to Echosmith’s 2013 debut “Talking Dreams.”
It is also the band’s first release since the departure of original member (and lead guitarist) Jamie Sierota.
Jamie, the oldest of the four Sierota siblings, left to spend more time with his wife and son.
“We had to find ourselves as a trio instead of a quartet,” says bassist Noah of Jamie’s departure.
“At that point, we never had another musician on stage with us,” adds Sydney, the band’s lead singer. “That literally forced us on a journey of having to discover this sound. We still had electric guitars, but they weren’t the center of the music anymore.”
“In order to bring [the] vision to life, the group utilized vintage synths, keys, and drum machines,” teases a press release from WB Records. “As a result, Inside A Dream is awash in shimmering synths, airy guitars, and heavenly vocals that wouldn’t be out of place blasting from an eighties transistor radio during an episode Stranger Things.”
In addition to confirming the new music, Echosmith revealed a set of fall tour dates. Banners will be supporting on all but the Salt Lake City date.
