Artist History
Echo Station was formed from the ashes of SpudGunn in 1998 at Binghamton University by Stephen R. Iasillo. Stephen and drummer Lisa Schonberg found guitarist Oren Glich and started to rock! With the addition of rotating, bass players Rick "Deezle" Purcell and Jay Cooker, we played some gigs and then graduated. Lisa and Rick went on to form y5o(www.y5o.com). After graduation, Stephen decided he wanted to carry on with the music he had created, so he pulled in his old pals, Joe "Bags" Bologna, Mike Moody, and Andy LaBella into the Mix to create an interesting sound for themselves and who ever wants to come for the ride. |

Press Reviews
"Well done, immediate and real rock music, fitting the "alternative" mold without being as hollow and meaningless as most modern rock is. Melancholy, understated, and musically accomplished, this is more for fans of Pavement than Matchbox 20." -Audiogalaxy.com "I’ve seen a lot of bands before,local bands, punk bands, underground hardcore bands, old school 80s metalbands, frumpy 70s mellow bands. I’ve seen it all.... And I know that I am absolutely right in predicting the future smashing of echo station. I saw them play not too long ago, and besides the fact that they blew me away...and that they rocked so hard, they also KILLED the audience." -Draconian Sunshine "It's so good it makes you want to smack yo' mama!!" -Rufus, the 13th Apostle". If you touch me, I'll scream Rock!" -Abe Froman, The Sausage King of Chicago |
