Air Dubai Touring Colorado and Releasing New EP
October 21, 2011 – Denver, CO – Denver-based bands Air Dubai and The Epilogues are gearing up for a run of Colorado tour dates together next week. Tickets for all four shows are on sale now on Air Dubai’s facebook page at http://on.fb.me/qtrdxI.
The band is set to release a new EP, “Day Escape,” next Tuesday, October 25th. Air Dubai’s song “Warm Days” was also featured on a recent episode of “Jersey Shore” on MTV. The track is available now for free download here: http://bit.ly/nL1cP4.
Air Dubai is a dynamic seven-piece hip-hop/pop group based in Denver, CO. With disparate musical backgrounds and indiscriminate influences, the young men of Air Dubai have truly created something new: a sound that’s all their own.
Vocalists Julian Thomas and Jon Shockness founded the band in the summer of 2008 as a duo. In spring of 2009, instrumentalists Nick Spreigl, Lawrence Grivich, Michael Ray, Taylor Tait and Wesley Watkins joined the group, rounding out the current line-up and sound. Since then, Air Dubai has gone on to collect several major accolades, including Westword magazine’s 2010 “Best New Hip-Hop Act” award.
The band’s debut studio album, Wonder Age, which spawned the breakout hit “Lasers,” was released in October of 2010, capitalizing on two years of anticipation built solely upon explosive live performances. Critically acclaimed and immensely popular, an Air Dubai show is a unique experience; a place where passion and soul collide with just plain having a good time.
The band has recorded with producer Jason Livermore (Against Me, NOFX, Rise Against) at the world-renowned Blasting Room Studios in Fort Collins, CO as well as recently completing new tracks with legendary producer Sylvia Massy (Tool, Red Hot Chili Peppers) at RadioStar Studios in Weed, CA. The tracks will be released next week as an EP.
Air Dubai has shared the stage with such diverse artists as OneRepublic, Flobots, The Pharcyde, Bone Thugs-n-Harmony, Chiddy Bang, The Game, Mayer Hawthorne & The County, Rakim, Guru, People Under The Stairs, Sweatshop Union and Lyrics Born, among others.
