Biography

Out of the plains of the Oklahoma panhandle comes a band with a name and a sound that audiences will never forget….

Bipolar Echo is a band that stands apart from the rest, fusing anthemic melodic hard rock, metal, and an occasional touch of prog, and they have earned a reputation as a band that will satisfy even the pickiest of audiences. Amber’s soaring vocals anchor the band’s harmonies in “Sorry For You” as she proclaims “I don’t feel sorry for you, you’ve made your own decisions,” reflecting the band’s hard working attitude, and disdain for whiney entitlement. The band gets funky with “Barbie Doll,” and reveals a slightly heavier side with a touch of prog with the driving “What I Thought.” Other original cuts like “Weird Days” and “What I Thought” rock with reckless abandon, and the band is well known for its amazing cover versions of a wide array of bands like Journey, Styx, Creed, Whitesnake, Heart, and Shinedown. Always present is Amber’s sassy vocal delivery and Kevin’s guitar gymnastics dancing around the infectious groove and heavy crunch laid down by Brad, Tiny, and Jacob. More than just another club band, Bipolar Echo puts on a professional rock show that delivers the goods!

Whether opening for REO Speedwagon, Foghat, or Creedence Clearwater Revisited in front of thousands, headlining festival events like the Barta Bash or the Five State Poker Run, or rocking a club, the Echo is equally at home. Bipolar Echo released their debut EP entitled "Weird Days" on August 31, available through iTunes and Zune, as well as via contact with the band.
