dbpprop:abstract
  • Echo Orbiter is a Philadelphia, Pennsylvania based indie rock band created by brothers Justin Emerle and Colin Emerle, described by Philadelphia Weekly as being "Widely considered two of the most inventive songwriters on the [Philadelphia] scene. " The underground music scene, in which the Echo Orbiter finds its roots, is one of self-promotion and truly defines the term "Indie. " Working with engineer/producer Brian McTear and such bands as The Three-4-Tens, Lenola, and the Lilys, the EO helped forge a unique scene which captures the creative zeitgeist of the early 2000 era Philadelphia underground. Outside of Philadelphia, and early in their career, Echo Orbiter had often been associated with Elephant Six groups such as Of Montreal, The Olivia Tremor Control, Elf Power, Beulah, and Neutral Milk Hotel. Although the EO originated in Philadelphia, unlike the mostly Athens Georgia based groups of the Elephant Six, the style and influences of the early Echo Orbiter were similar to the Elephant Six, and the bands had interacted extensively, collaborating on shows, compilations, and a rare split 45 with Calvin, Don't Jump.
