Air Traffic Controller

The House

Sounds like: The Mowglis, Of Monsters and Men, Grouplove
Oh, do I have a treat for you all on this Thursday afternoon. If this is what feel-good music sounds like, I want buckets and buckets more of it. Air Traffic Controller, a Boston-based indie rock group, are bringing back insanely awesome, unadulterated musical fun. You may have heard "You Know Me," which graced the #1 spot on Hype Machine, and was placed on the NPR Hot 100 list for SXSW. This song, you guys. "The House" tells a story, and it's so catchy you find yourself daydreaming about how much fun it must've been to record. Dave Munro's vocals elevate this song, and are perfectly matched by the whimsical fun in the background. Mysteriously intriguing, these guys take you by the hand and lead you down an explosion of musical colors. Listen to the lyrics. ATC transports you to a very nostalgic place, where you did whatever you wanted without giving a single fudge. A song like "The House" is delicious, impeccable, and absolutely entrancing. Air Traffic Controller will be kicking off their tour August 2 in Seattle, and their following dates can be found here. "The House" is set to release next Tuesday, July 29. These guys are an absolute treat.
