Many of my poems turned into songs for this album. I was part of a “Secret Poetry Group”that met and wrote poems monthly for a year during the writing of this record. My conscious mind was trying as hard as I could to keep my family together but my subconscious mind was working on the difficult struggles in my marital life. Laura says: 'My Echo is “my songs knew I was getting divorced before I did' album. My Echo is Laura Veirs' eleventh studio album, and includes appearances and features from Jim James, Bill Frisell, Karl Blau, Matt Ward and others.
