Glen Echo

We're Back!

About Me

Forming in the winter of 2005, Glen Echo was making a quick name for themselves in the Los Angeles music scene. With Thom Van on Lead Vocals, Nick Slatkin on Bass, Ben Ziff on Lead Guitar, and Joshua John on Rhythm Guitar, and in the span of only three months, they recorded a four song demo with Gabriel Heredia (Kill The Complex), played alf a dozen shows in Los Angeles, and showcased at SxSW in Austin. Their songs, Dream and The Anchor Solution, can be heard in the behind the scenes video of the short film "THE ATTACKMEN."With things moving at such a fast rate, and dealing with some internal conflicts, Glen Echo decided to go their separate ways. One year later, the core group of Thom, Nick, Josh, and Ben, realized they missed making music together and have been getting back into the swing of things over the past month. They picked up right where they left off and are working on some amazing songs.So, after a small hiatus, Glen Echo is back, and doing it right this time!
