TWO NIGHTS to catch ⠀
⠀
ECHO IN THE CANYON⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀
“A star-studded, nostalgic blast-from-the-past.” – Susan Granger, SSG Syndicate ⠀
⠀
Echo In The Canyon celebrates the explosion of popular music that came out of LA’s Laurel Canyon in the mid-60s as folk went electric and The Byrds, The Beach Boys, Buffalo Springfield and The Mamas and the Papas gave birth to the California Sound. It was a moment (1965 to 1967) when bands came to LA to emulate The Beatles and Laurel Canyon emerged as a hotbed of creativity and collaboration for a new generation of musicians who would soon put an indelible stamp on the history of American popular music.⠀
⠀
Co-written and Directed by: Andrew Slater ⠀
Featuring: Jakob Dylan, Tom Petty, Eric Clapton, Ringo Starr, Stephen Stills, David Crosby, Roger Mcguinn, Beck, Regina Spektor, Graham Nash, Cat Power, Lou Adler, John Sebastian, Jackson Browne, Michelle Phillips, Nora Jones, Jade Castrinos⠀
