Battle of Honey Springs

Edit links

The Echoing Green is an electronic music and synthpop band. It began as a duo between Joey Belville and Aaron Bowman in 1992,[1] and has since released eleven major albums.

History

Belville, a devout Christian, created the band with a focus on faith and self-funding rather than having label. Their lyrics are infused with a strong element of faith and biblical themes. Christian artists also make occasional appearances. For instance, Riki Michele provided vocals on "Defend Your Joy", though she was uncredited for the part.[1] Supernova managed to gain a label and recognition, the band mostly works with word of mouth.[citation needed]

A remix of the song "Oxygen" from Hope Springs Eternal appeared on the Sci-Fi Channel's show First Wave.[2]

On February 21, 2011, the band announced their completion of mastering on In Scarlet and Vile, which later went to release on March 11, 2011.[3][4]

Belville has produced and mixed other bands such as Leiahdorus and System22.[5]
