Playing progressive and accessible indie rock, Aviette is a Minneapolis-based band made up of Holly Muñoz (guitar/vocals), Justin Hartke (bass), and Kyle Larson (drums). Their debut record, Until We Hear From Dave was selected as one of the best records of 2006 by The Onion A.V. Club and was CMJ’s #18 ADD. Songs from UWHFD were featured on IndieFeed and charted at core radio stations such as KALX, WRSU and WTCC.
Aviette recorded their second full-length album, The Way We
Met with Darren Jackson (Kid Dakota, The Hopefuls, Alva Star). From the driving beat of “What You Want Me To Say” to the determined optimism of “The Way We Met,” this collection of songs is consistent and thoughtfully arranged.
The Way We Met was released nationwide on July 1, 2008. Aviette recently finished recording their third album with Chicago based producer Devon Bryant and engineer Jonathan Raymond. We Never Make Mistakes will be available online and on vinyl through Draw Fire Records in the near future.
