    The Joy Mills Band takes a sonic turn on their new album, Echolocator, taking their soulful country and roots sound into new territory. The sound is clean and modern, vocals front and center. An eclectic set of influences from long-time band members takes flavors from singer-songwriters like Jenny Lewis and Sharon Van Etten and twangy southern rock classics from Supertramp and The Police. The rhythm section is no-frills straight ahead, and the atmosphere and vibe come from Lucien LaMotte's versatile lead guitar and Jack Quick's playful keyboards. Still classic and warm, the Joy Mills Band delivers 10 unfaltering songs on Echolocator, their fifth release, mixed by Julian Martlew and mastered by Ed Brooks (Resonant Mastering).

lyrics

Get around, I got a long way to go
But I’ve come a long way, see how the tree’s grown
I might be late for the show
Time bends like a twist in the sequence
It’s hard to lose what you learn, It’s hot when the forest burns
On every acre, in every field alone

Feel it all around, feel it in your blood
Walk upon the ground, keep your eyes toward the sun
Wonder what that feeling is
It’s a message of my love, ooo

Message of my love, how the light gave away
A message of who we are and what conveys
Hold on, hold on we’ve only just begun
In every field alone

We’re all love crazed, pushed into the cities of haze
The social mores anymore just keep us further away
We hold grief in our lungs, I’m calling every good wish home
On every acre, in every field alone

Feel it in your arms, feel it in your legs
Vessels of your heart, enigmatic spark
Wonder what that feeling is
It’s a message of my love ooo

It’s the center of your heart
