Greetings From Echo Park (Transparent Blue Vinyl)

Product Description

In his debut LP with Kill Rock Stars, Greetings from Echo Park, Ryan Cassata (he/him), a genre-defying powerhouse musician and activist, constructs a raw collection of folk punk, blues, and pop punk songs that soundtrack stories of anxiety, escapism, illness, and transphobia

In Greetings from Echo Park, Cassata has seemingly spent the past few years swallowing down all the feelings of isolation and anxiety he could hold. Now he’s spitting it back up like bile. The result is a rich mosaic of influences and voices, bringing in collaborators such as Jason Hiller, David Scott Stone (Melvins, LCD Soundsystem), Mark Pelli (MAGIC!), and utilizing styles from emo pop-punk to Springsteen-style guitar. The album art even plays homage to Bruce Springsteen's iconic Greetings from Asbury Park.
