In a town where country and contemporary Christian music rule and everyone you meet is trying to break into the music business, it's become harder and harder to stand out from the crowd in Music City. And although that's become one of the biggest problems that many up and coming artists have to deal with, it's not the case for the ultra-talented Mikky Ekko.

If his tribal face paint and captivating stage presence doesn't grab your attention at first glance, then his poetry-like lyrics and phenomenal voice will.

Just last year, Mikky Ekko put out his first EP, Strange Fruit. The EP includes tracks like "Sedated" and "It's Only You" that you can't help but bob your head to. Then there's "I Love You (I Always Have) that contains gorgeous lyrics and causes you to be an amazement of the vocal range Ekko possesses. Since then, he has released a 3 song EP entitled, Reds, which will hook you in within the first 30 seconds and leave you in awe buy the end of the last track.

Overall, Ekko produces a unique and ambient sound that will without a doubt move you. He's said to be the leading voice in the post-pop movement, and3 with the unique sound and presence that he brings to the table, I believe it.
