"Miri Tyler of DC punks Ekko Astral told us about five of her favorite bands from the DC-area, past and present: Ekko Astral's most recent album was 2024's Pink Balloons, one of our favorite albums of that year. They've released some singles since then, most recently last month's "horseglue," which takes them into noise rock territory. Watch the video for that below."
"They'll be on tour in March supporting Mclusky. See all dates below.
