Rehearsal Space: The Airborne Toxic Event

For more, go to http://www.zoom-in.com/music/rehearsal-space

Two years ago, The Airborne Toxic Event formed in Los Angeles, a city with one of the strongest and most diverse music communities in the country right now. Without a manager, a PR company, or a label, they still received overwhelming critical and popular acclaim. Rolling Stone named them one of the Top 25 Bands on MySpace, and The LA Times, LA weekly, NME and countless music blogs have written rave reviews about their energetic live shows. Earlier this year, their residency at Silver Lake’s popular venue Spaceland was spread by word of mouth to the point where lines were wrapped around the block and every show was sold out. Due to popular demand, the legendary radio station KROQ began playing their song, “Sometime Around Midnight” on regular rotation, and it quickly became the most requested song. This marks the first time KROQ has included an unsigned band on their playlist in over ten years.

In this episode of Rehearsal Space, singer and founder Mikel Jollett gives an introduction to this exciting band. He explains how these five musicians came together, why they recently chose to sign to Majordomo Records, and the process by which they recorded their self-titled debut album, which will be released on August 5, 2008.
