The Aéropostale is an trio from Montreal that merges dub bass pulses, precise rock drumming, jazz atmospheres, drunken no-wave guitars and broken 80's synths.Band/artist history
Back in 2001, a day prior to the twin tower catastrophe, the members of the Aeropostale decide to play together for the first time... This first recorded jam contained so many good moments that the trio decided to play togheter more often. This process slowly lead them to build a repertoire of aventurous music, themes and songs. The first songs are recorded in the summer of 2002 and were released as an album called "A Mais Rapida" in december 2003. Now, in 2004, the band is getting ready to record its second album which will state clearly which way they are heading experimentally and sonically.Have you performed in front of an audience?L'Aeropostale live shows are always an event.
You can catch them in a place called the "Va-et-Vient", which is a small café in the heart of St-Henri in Montréal.
