Aerodrone started in 2007 when Gary Zon started making Nintendo-like tracks on FruityLoops inspired by such bands as Jimmy Eat World, The Faint, and The Killers, with the intention of having the tracks eventually played with real instruments. Recruiting local musicians to fulfill this goal, like Ashton Kutcher-lookalike Kevin Patrick, the newly formed band played shows to frenzied fans in Oregon and recorded the SPIN EP in Canada. After the band's big move to California, it gained the mysterious keyboardist only known as the TZA and recorded its latest EP in Hollywood at The Hidden Studio.
"Aerodrone's song 'Sceneboy' is destined for great things, at least the conquering of all iPods in the free world."

"Band Of The Week"
-MTVU, 2008
"KOAR's Filter Pick," 2007
"These
hipsters keep their music on both front
burners...if you're hung up on The Killers or
The Faint, Aerodrone will tickle your
fancy."
-AbsolutePunk.net
-The Register Guard
"...pleasantly
post punk-ish flavored guitar riffs and charming
synths meet Gary's vocals, which are a great
blend of emotion and a certain subcooled 80s
flair"

"What
do you get when you combine the electro-clash
New Wave of The Faint with The
Killers' brand of guitar-driven rock? Newest
Wave, perhaps? Either way, Aerodrone
manage to combine those seemingly disparate
influences into an appealing synthesis that has
both style and substance."

I LOVE "Hold Me Like A Microphone!" The air guitar metaphor is both beautiful and seductive. This song is just AMAZING and I had to share that with you.
