History

Formation

Sky Eats Airplane was formed originally by Brack Cantrell and Lee Duck of band Our First Fall. The two left when the band broke up and began writing heavier music while experimenting with synthetic beats in the background.

2005-present

After working on some demos, the band quickly became well known locally. They began working on their debut album "Everything Perfect on the Wrong Day" in early 2006. Over a three month span they self produced the entire nine-track album. Sky Eats Airplane held their CD release party for their debut album at The Door in Fort Worth, Texas. [ [http://skyeatsairplane.com/ Sky Eats Airplane history] Retrieved on May 26, 2008] Brack Cantrell left the band in order to pursue softer music, and now plays guitar and sings in his solo project Balance Problems.

Lee decided to ask Zack Ordway, Kenny Schick, and John Erickson of local metalcore outfit (in Theory) to join Sky Eats Airplane and audition singers for the band. After having a lengthy tryout held from their myspace in which they had an instrumental download, they landed on Jerry Roush from Virginia Beach, VA. Roush had previously played drums in hardcore bands as this was his first attempt as a frontman. He was sent instrumental versions of tracks "Giants In The Ocean" and "Long Walks On Short Bridges" to record his vocals over, for his audition. [ [http://youtube.com/watch?v=4_yeLlA8IsU Mainstream Killed The Indie Star Interview] Retrieved on May 27, 2008] Roush has a history in modeling prior to joining the band. Since the new formation of Sky Eats Airplane, they were signed to a distribution agreement with Thriving Records / Tragic Hero Records where they re-released "Everything Perfect on The Wrong Day" on November 20th 2007 and since signed with Equal Vision Records.

In early 2008 the band entered Salad Days Studios in Baltimore, MD with producer Brian McTernan (Circa Survive, Thrice, The Bled, Senses Fail), to record their self-titled follow up album. The album was released on July 22, 2008 through Equal Vision Records [ [http://www.equalvision.com/artist/Sky_Eats_Airplane Equal Vision Records artist page] Retrieved on May 26, 2008]
