Formed in 2006, The Airborne Toxic Event has quickly become the darling of its
native Los Angeles.
The five-piece indie rock band, named after a section of the book White Noise by
Don DeLillo, began with just one member, novelist Mikel Jollett. Bombarded with
a fistful of bad news, he was inspired to turn his attention from writing prose
to writing songs. Four band members later, Airborne had created a harmony of
string instruments, keyboards and a standard rock lineup of guitar, drums, and
bass.
The group played their first show in LA less than one month after it was fully
formed. And in less than two years, the band has earned tons of positive
attention from music lovers and press alike. In December 2006, Rolling Stone
named them one of the ôTop 25 Bands on MySpace.ö They have since gone on to be
placed at the top of many press lists, most notably, LA Weekly and The Los
Angeles Times, which hails them as one the top three LA bands to watch in 2008.
Garnering comparisons to everyone from Modest Mouse and The Arcade Fire to the
Clash and U2, the band has become a fixture on the Los Angeles music scene and
can only be expected to find its way to the top of the heap.
