dark echoes - the thick flow experience

Based out of Charlotte, NC - Dark Echoes is a powerful new Pink Floyd tribute band dedicated to recreating the sound, spirit, and atmosphere of one of rock’s most legendary acts. The band features Omar Martinez on guitar and lead vocals, Steven Gramling on bass and vocals, Chris Cassar on drums, and James Quigley on keyboards.
