Sky Eats Airplane find the missing pieces

According to their Myspace blog Sky Eats Airplane have chosen two members to add to their lineup. Full details found below:

First off, we really want to thank everyone that auditioned for the vocalist spot. We received over a thousand messages of outstanding tryouts, and we apologize if we didn’t get to respond to every message. It wasn’t a matter of who had the best range and skill as a singer or who had the most br00tal scream. We were simply looking for who fit the new material best. This has been a long and arduous journey for the band to find the right pick for us, and unfortunately there can be only one….

New Members & New Songs!

First off, we really want to thank everyone that auditioned for the vocalist spot. We received over a thousand messages of outstanding tryouts, and we apologize if we didn’t get to respond to every message. It wasn’t a matter of who had the best range and skill as a singer or who had the most br00tal scream. We were simply looking for who fit the new material best. This has been a long and arduous journey for the band to find the right pick for us, and unfortunately there can be only one….

….or perhaps two? ;)

We would like to introduce two new voices for the band: Bryan Zimmerman (Lead Vocals) and Elliot Coleman (Vocals/Bass).

We felt fairly limited vocally on the last record and we are very excited to utilize two singers for the next album, as this will add a new dynamic to our sound. Although Bryan and Elliot both have different voices, we feel that each will add their own style to the new songs — along with older songs live — that wasn’t possible before.

We are sad to say that Johno is no longer in the band due to creative differences. We felt that it was in everyone’s best interest. We still value his friendship highly and wish him the best of luck in the future.

As for new material, expect a brand spankin’ new EP to be released in the Spring with all new material! We are still working on a full length, but wanted to be able to get some new songs out to you sooner. Our good buddy, Taylor Larson at Oceanic Recordings, is recording our EP at the beginning of the year.

The clip up on our myspace is a sample of ideas we are currently working on and would like to share with you guys. Keep in mind that these are just very rough demos but we couldn’t wait any longer to show you what we’ve been working on.
