Aloha
Aloha is an american indie rock band currently signed to Polyvinyl Record Company. The four members of Aloha are scattered across the eastern half of the country, but spend most of their time making music together. Some Echoes is the second Aloha album since T.J. Lipple joined the band, and was recorded, mixed and mastered at Silver Sonya, the studio he runs with Chad Clark (Beauty Pill) in Arlington, Va.

Aloha’s 2000 debut album That’s Your Fire arrived at a time when freeform song structures and jazzy instrumentation dominated the indie scene, and in that context, Aloha’s addition of recognizable ... Read more
