Air Traffic Control
What: Alternative/Rock
Where: Lunenburg, NS
Visit: www.airtrafficcontrol.ca
Air Traffic Control aren’t exactly newcomers; the Lunenburg, NS-based trio has been releasing albums together since 1993. Originally performing as Madhat, the band released five albums, working their way through a number of bassists before settling on their current lineup (featuring brothers Jordi and Kirk Comstock as well as cousin Luke) in 2005 and renaming themselves. They released Air Traffic Control in 2005 and To Be Free in 2007.
Their latest album, Can’t Kill Love, finds the band continuing to craft mature pop-rock with more texture and depth than you might expect from a trio. While they’re not quite a household name yet, the band has earned accolades from many in the music industry for some time. They were nominated for Group of the Year at the 2005 edition of Nova Scotia Music Week and have gotten nods from industry veterans like Edge 102’s Alan Cross. Can’t Kill Love should land the band some more exposure, which they’ve kick-started with a video for the album’s title-track (which you can view on their website).
