Echo's Children (Callie Hills and Cat Faber) was an acoustic duo that performed mostly at science fiction conventions. We wrote, arranged, and performed original songs about subjects ranging from science fiction through science and technology to out-and-out fantasy. More information about this sort of music (called "filk" music) is available at Julia West's Web site.
