Air Traffic are: Chris Wall (Vocals, Piano, Guitar) David Ryan Jordan (Drums) Jim Maddock (Bass) Tom Pritchard (Guitar)

One of many bands tipped to be the ‘Artic Monkeys of 2007’, Air Traffic are among the few actually living up to the hype.

Originally from Bournemouth, this piano-led, indie-rock quartet got their name from the air traffic control signals that they would pick up while they were rehearsing in abandoned industrial units next to an airport.

They released ‘Just Abuse Me’ which was declared “the hottest record in the world” upon its release last July by DJ Zane Lowe. Currently supporting Snow Patrol the band is also being championed by the likes of Steve Lamacq & Jo Whiley, plus they have been hotly tipped by NME, who likened the band to “Supergrass covering Little Richard”

Since their signing earlier this year to EMI the band has spent much of the summer hidden away recording their highly anticipated debut album at Rockfield studios in Wales.

2007 will see further UK tours, their first tour dates in Ireland, Europe and the US plus their first official single release and their eagerly awaited album debut.
