DEBUT UK SINGLE ‘HURRY HURRY’ RELEASED ON DECEMBER 9th
For lovers of Darwin Deez, Matt & Kim, The Decemberists, Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros, Blind Pilot etc
Serving in the US Navy as a real-life air traffic controller, singer/songwriter Dave Munro sent home 4-track demos he had written and recorded during his deployment. With his enlistment up, Munro returned to hometown Boston and discovered an impressive number of fans, prompting the genesis of the aptly-named band Air Traffic Controller.
Consisting of six band members and a multitude of instrumentation, Air Traffic Controller are about to introduce their quirky indie pop to the UK for the first time with the release of their infectious single ‘Hurry Hurry’, taken from their much acclaimed second album ‘NORDO’.
Produced by one of Munro’s favourite music producers, Bleu, ‘Hurry Hurry’ is a tale that everyone can relate to depicting the day-to-day rush through life, often forgetting what is really important. As Munro states in his fast-paced, autobiographical, storytelling lyrics reminiscent of the likes of Paul Simon and Cat Stevens:
“I hurried when I should've been in the zone, I hurried my loved ones off the phone, I hurried through sex - I know I know, I hurried my quiet time alone.”
Air Traffic Controller’s incredible ‘NORDO’ album is scheduled for a UK release in early 2014.
Air Traffic Controller are:
Dave Munro - lead vocals and guitar
Steve Scott - lead guitar, keys +
Richie Munro - drums
Casey Sullivan - bass, banjo, and backing vocals
Kiara Perico - viola
