Like tiny stalagmites and stalactites, the MotionPilots have been growing in the caves of the music scene since 2005. Formed in a dirty basement in Minneapolis MotionPilots spent the first few years gigging rigorously while developing a powerful live sound and stage show.
By the time DJ Rickerd joined the band on drums in early 2007 Matt Reilly along with Eric Warner, and Dash Leander, were a rock force that needed to be heard.
With an ever growing audience and a energetic stage presence MotionPilots caught the eye of producer extraordinaire Chris W Langer. Langer, who is best known for his work with Soul Asylum and Wide Spread Panic quickly and easily persuaded the band to cut their first full length record. "It is the most raw, heart felt rock/groove album I have done in a long time” says Langer.
In March of 2008, the MotionPilots released their debut album and sold through the first pressing within a couple of months. Along the same time Tinder Box introduced the band to the radio and MotionPilots charted nationally on upwards of 150 stations. The successful radio campaign brought on Reality TV licenses for Real World, Road Rules, Human Giant, Sweet 16, Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Living Lohen, and Psychic Detective.
On a trip down to Nashville MotionPilots were introduced to DreamScapers who now handles all of the national college bookings for the band. At the same time they got hooked up with their own publishing companies and are now proud members of SESAC.
The "guntar" logo was made into a T-Shirt and provided by a small endorsement by Miller beer. The logo has become a staple of the PromotionPilots (MotionPilots fan club) MotionPilots DIY mentality and willingness to sample different aspects of the music business has put them in a very good position in this ever changing industry.

It features the last two performances with Tony Ellis still alive, and some footage from the tribute show we played on the night of his funeral.
There are some cool covers, as well as some NEW music that will be on our upcoming EP. We're very excited about the new music and we'd like to share a sneak peak with you. Here's a video of a tune called Run Bobby Run:
