NIKLAS LUKASSEN «ECHO» Feat: ANANDA Brandao-IMMY Churchill-JONNY Mansfield ECHO listens, reflects, and transforms with every new sound. The distinctly orchestrated, international ensemble around Niklas Lukassen's compositions and arrangements manages to lend weight to a whisper just as much as it takes thundering, unforeseen turns. In an unlikely combination between songwriter poetry and lively improvisation, ECHO creates soundscapes in text and tone. With the Londoners Immy Churchill and Jonny Mansfield, the Parisian Ananda Brandao, and Niklas Lukassen on a hybrid instrument between cello and bass guitar, their music resonates beyond the boundaries of any singular stylistic corner. Free in all directions, stories unfold that sound so imaginative as if they came from an ECHO that travels an entire world of its own across caves and valleys in mere moments.
