"Rock'n'roll is always in fashion" - Western Aerial

Portland, Oregon, . . .it's 6 am. After an eight-hour recording session that began when most people go to bed, the members of Western Aerial have one thing in mind "They start selling beer again soon right?"

Behind the release of Want it All and Made in Portland the Portland based 3-piece has much to celebrate. Just in the past year Western Aerial has opened for multiple national touring acts including Incubus, Alice in Chains, Buckcherry, Saliva, Seether, Everclear, Chevelle, Cracker, and more.

Recently Western Aerial has:
• Kicked off the main stage at KUFO’s Rockfest 12!
• Played the 2007 VANS Warped Tour!
• Released the third full-length album Made in Portland
• Featured artist for MusicFest NW in 2005 & 2006
• Voted by the fans to rock KUFO’s Rockfest 11!
• Featured artists for Budweiser’s True Music Series
• Received honorable mention from Billboard Magazine and the 13th annual Billboard Music Song Contest
• Chosen by Portland and PDXposed as "Best of Portland" 2006
• Received airplay on local and regional radio stations

Drawing comparisons to Buckcherry, Velvet Revolver, AC/DC, and Foo Fighters, Western Aerial’s music and ferocious live performances blend their Northwestern rock ‘n’ roll with a cocky swagger and showmanship that has been missing in recent years. The NEW album delivers all the fist-in-your-face, foot-stomping rock fans have come to expect from Western Aerial.

Hell-bent on international stardom and all it's sordid trappings, Western Aerial have one thing in mind: Portland ... then the world.
