Stars of Aviation

Stars of Aviation were a pop group from Brighton and London. They met in university Russian class in 1998 and started playing together in 2000. Since then, they grew in number to eight and featured guitars, drums, trumpet, accordion, keyboards and bassoon. Stars of Aviation released a number of EPs and singles. Marie et l'Accordeon, released on Kitchen Records in 2006, gained radio play from Huw Stephens on Radio 1 and a number of BBC 6Music shows and was described as 'a slice of escapist wonder'. It also featured on the legendary indiepop compilation “The Kids At The Club” from How Does it Feel to be Loved? records. In summer 2010, Stars of Aviation released the EP By the Shore on weePOP! records (www.weepop.net) featuring four songs, two of which were taken from the band's debut album, 6½ Magic Hours. The single is available in the form of a limited edition hand assembled 3" CD and digitally from iTunes and most other online music shops. http://starsofaviation.bandcamp.com Read more on Last.fm.
