ROBERT ASCROFT AND BRITTA PHILLIPS (LUNA, DEAN & BRITTA) // WHERE DID YOU GO (VIDEO) & ECHO STILL REMAINS (ALBUM)

ROBERT ASCROFT announces his upcoming album Echo Still Remains and shares “Where Did You Go” featuring Britta Phillips of Luna and Dean & Britta.

On Echo Still Remains Ascroft draws from a diverse array of talented friends, curating a mesmerizing ensemble of vocal performances from Christopher Owens (Girls), Kid Congo Powers (The Cramps, Gun Club), Tess Parks, Ruth Radelet (Chromatics), Guy Blakeslee (The Entrance Band), Ora Cogan and Zumi Rosow (Black Lips).

The album takes on a further rich and dynamic sound with the recording contributions of Grammy Award winning audio engineer Ted Young (Rolling Stones, Kurt Vile, Sonic Youth), the mixing of Larry Crane (Elliott Smith, The Shins, She & Him), and mastering by Josh Bonati (Mac DeMarco, Wild Nothing, Slowdive).

With “Where Did You Go” vocalist and actress Britta Phillips (Luna, Dean & Britta) channels the allure of 1960s Film Noir with the dark and surreal beauty of David Lynch’s Lost Highway in sound and cinema. The track also boasts Ascroft’s ethereal guitar interplay with Roger Brogan’s rhythmic mode drumming to conjure a haunting vintage charm with a whip-smart modern allure.

Emerging as a prominent photographer in the 2000s, Ascroft forged his path through collaborations with luminaries of the Oscars, Grammys, Tonys, and Emmys from Cate Blanchett, Ryan Gosling, to The Killers, Mark Ronson and A$AP Rocky. With an innate ability to capture the essence of his subjects through his camera lens, he redefines photography, infusing it with depth, emotion, and narrative. A classically trained guitarist turned music producer, Ascroft weaves intricate melodies and evocative songwriting with cinematic narratives.
