Firefriend

When bassist Julia Grassetti and guitarist Yury Hermuche met in December 2005 in São Paulo, Brazil, they began to shape their own blend of heavy, hypnotic psychedelia, space rock, and shoegaze. Over two decades, they built a reputation for intense live performances and albums, releasing 13 LPs to date, in both the United States and the United Kingdom.

Echoes of Distant Stars are a Psychedelic Space Rock band from Newcastle Upon Tyne. Formed in early 2025, the band blends influences from kosmiche, prog rock, folk and psych. In parts delicate and melodic, in others heavy and cacophonous, other parts weird and ethereal, the three piece of Alex Johnston (Drums), Tom Astley (Guitar), and Dave Molnar (Bass) have brought to life a panoply of long-form, semi-improvised concept pieces.
