[edit] Career

[edit] 2000-2005: Echobrain

Main article: Echobrain

Echobrain first formed in 2000. Before this, Donkin first met at Jason Newsted and a few friends at Newsted's residence. On a road trip to Baja, Mexico, Donkin and Brian Sagrafena recorded some rough demos that, when they came home, eventually caught Newsted's attention, who then offered to help out on bass guitar and assist the songwriting. In May 2000, they entered a studio to record the demos more professionally, with help from several musicians including Newsted's then-colleague and Metallica guitarist Kirk Hammett, and former Faith No More guitarist Jim Martin.

The band broke up in 2005 after releasing 3 albums.

Donkin released a 7" vinyl single Make A Choice in September 2006. Donkin released his debut full-length album in May 2007.
