New Album... 17 June, 2009
It is with mixed emotions that we would like to announce the completion of our third, full length album, We Never Make Mistakes. Surrounded by friends and an energetic dog named Murphy, we recorded these songs in a house in Saint Paul the last two weeks of May. We are dedicating this effort to the memory of our dear friend, Stephanie Morris who passed away on June 1, 2009.
Stephanie was an accomplished musician and remarkable woman. Aside from her solo project, Stephanie Morris and the Rest, Steph collaborated and played on many of our albums and with great bands like Scotland Yard Gospel Choir and Dianogah. She was one of our favorite people in the world and it goes without saying that we will miss her terribly.

Record Release Party Highlighted in City
Pages 27-29 June, 2008 | Posted by
Andrea Myers, Music Editor City Pages: Over the Weekend
The Triple Rock was bustling for the Aviette CD release party
Saturday night. The show was a celebration for their new disc The
Way We Met, a 24 minute exploration of moody break-up pop (see
also: Pat O'Brien's review of the album), and Aviette played the
disc in its entirety in addition to a couple of old and new tunes.
Joined by Draw Fire Records labelmate Sam Keenan on guitar, Aviette
played with an intensity that I had yet to see from the group:
the sound was mixed incredibly well and the instruments blended
together subtly, leaving plenty of room for lead singer Holly Munoz's
warm soprano nuances to float atop the echoing noise. Highlights
of the set included the title track of the new album, "The
Way We Met," which might possibly be the saddest song about
a rock chick's broken heart ever written ("After meeting at
a show/Would there be any doubt?" Munoz sighs), and a cover
of the James song "Laid."
