Echolyn foi formado em 1989 quando o guitarrista Brett Kull e o baterista Paul Ramsey, então membros da recém extinta banda cover Narcissus, uniram-se ao tecladista Chris Buzby para formar uma nova banda focada em músicas próprias. Logo uniram-se a eles o ex-integrantes do Narcissus Ray Weston no vocal e o baixista Jesse Reyes. Começaram então a apresentar-se ao vivo e a gravar o álbum de estreia, Echolyn, que foi lançado em 1991. Durante as gravações Rayes foi substituído por Tom Hyatt no baixo.
Com essa formação a banda gravou o segundo álbum, Suffocating the Bloom, e o EP de quatro canções ...and every blossom, atraindo as atenções da Sony Music. Em 1993 assinaram um contrato de múltiplos álbuns com a gravadora Epic Records, lançando então o álbum As the World, em março de 1995.
Posteriormente a banda entrou em desacordo com a gravadora por causa da sua direção musical, sendo forçados a promover As the World sem o suporte da Sony Epic. Desiludidos, desfizeram o grupo, lançando o álbum póstumo de demos e faixas ao vivo When the Sweet Turns Sour em 1996.
Weston, Kull e Ramsey formaram uma nova banda mais voltada ao rock, que primeiramente chamava-se Still, e que após foi renomeada para Always Almost. Buzby formou outra banda de rock progressivo influenciada pelo jazz chamada Finneus Gauge.
O Echolyn reuniu-se novamente, sem a presença de Hyatt, em meados de 2000, com Weston assumindo o lugar no baixo e um novo membro, Jordan Perlson, ex-aluno de Buzby, auxiliando Ramsey na bateria e percussão. Essa formação produziu o álbum Cowboy Poems Free (2000) e mei (2002), este último contendo uma única trilha de 50 minutos de duração.
Após tocar como convidado da banda em 2002 e início de 2003, Tom Hyatt voltou oficialmente ao Echolyn no final daquele ano. O primeiro álbum com a banda reformulada foi lançado em setembro de 2005, The End Is Beautiful. Texto: Wikipédia.
