The Mighty Echoes are an American a cappella doo-wop quartet from Los Angeles, California. The group was formed backstage at the Olio Theater in Silverlake, California during the production of Harvey Shield's 1986 musical 1284: The Pied Piper.

The Echoes went on to appear on many TV shows including Frank's Place, Family Matters, Brooklyn Bridge, Murphy Brown, a stint as Tony Danza's high school singing group on Who's the Boss? and more recent appearances on It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia and The Suite Life of Zack & Cody. The group appeared in one feature film, the Dennis Quaid / Debra Winger vehicle, Wilder Napalm. In the film, they sing "Ring of Fire", "Heat Wave", "Duke of Earl" and "I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire". In his book, American Singing Groups: A History from 1940s to Today, Jay Warner calls the Echoes "the West Coast equivalent of the best East Coast a cappella groups of the last 20 years".{{cite book |title= American Singing Groups: A History from 1940 to Today |last= Warner |first= Jay |year= 2006 |publisher= Hal Leonard Corporation |isbn= 0634099787 |pages= [https://archive.org/details/americansingingg00warn/page/557 557–558] |url-access= registration |url= https://archive.org/details/americansingingg00warn/page/557 }}
