Echosmith

Echosmith is an American all-sibling alternative pop band formed in Toluca Lake, Los Angeles, in February 2009. The group is best known for their song Cool Kids, which reached number 13 on the Billboard Hot 100 and was certified double platinum in the United States and Australia. The band's debut album, Talking Dreams, was released on October 8, 2013. Their second album "Lonely Generation" was released on January 10, 2020.

History
In 2006, the bands father Jeffery David was searching for a band for a benefit concert and got the idea of taking his children. According to popcrush.com, the first song they ever played together was 'Lovesong' by 'The Cure'. In 2009, the band was founded officially, frequently changing names. In late 2014, the band became famous around the globe with their break-through hit Cool Kids, which climbed the top of most countries charts.

Name
The name of the band is an untranslatable wordplay - a blacksmith shaped metal and due to the fact they are a band, they're shaping with sounds (echos) - so they called themselves Echosmith.

The name is probably also inspired by one of their favourite bands names: Echo & the Bunnymen and The Smiths. It also sounds quite similiar to popular band Aerosmith.

Sydney mentioned one time that many people often don't get the wordplay behind it, but doesn't care.
