   About avelar
avelar is dead! Long live avelar! Or, more to the point, long live Radars to the Sky.

We are now Radars to the Sky (www.myspace.com/radarstothesky).

We've got a brand-new debut e.p. and an e.p. release party. Come be our friends:

radars to the sky & thailand flyer

Some nice words about our former incarnation:

[avelar]s songsladen with memorable, jangly guitar noodlings and lyrical esotericaare akin to the work of Built to Spill and the Elephant 6 collective. [T]he debut has a number of energetic, infectious tracks that recall the heyday of lo-fi, smart-alecky indie rock - Entertainment Today.

This is about the best batch of pure indie-rock songs that youre going to be able to find west of the Mississippi. Hell, make that west of the Appalachian Mountains. - indie-music.com.

The intelligent, quirky pop sound of avelar is not what one would expect from a band that calls L.A. home. - West Coast Performer.

Fortunately, there are a few bands left -- avelar among them -- with more on their minds than getting on MTV, and enough musical chops to entertain and captivate an audience with an average IQ in the three-digit range. - Splendid E-Zine.

When they're good, they're brilliant. - agouti.com

Dear those who care about Avelar:

We recorded an E.P. today with the radical Pete Min in Eagle Rock. Should be mixed and ready to distribute later this summer. Stay tuned, we'll put a new sample up on our site soon!

oops.....sorry there Andrew...didn't mean to start anything. Just felt kinda weird calling you "Andrew".

Thanks again for all those suicides you had me do in high school.... =)
Kate

Andrew says, " I hereby deem that all bandmembers henceforth address me solely by the moniker 'Coach Spitser' upon penalty of paying for practice
(and/or lashings)"

sooo guys, sounds like good times ahead, eh? I can handle lashings, as long as he doesn't make us run around the field.
