AWOLNATION-Electronic pop/Power pop/Indie pop

It's time to enjoy awesomeness.  Enough said.

AWOLNATION creates a unique blend of Indie, Electronica, Hard rock and Pop with every song and leaves you in amazement. A passion exists with this band that is unlike any other and sucks you in with no hope of ever pushing the stop button.

The band was started when Red Bull Records approached Aaron Bruno and asked him to use their free studio and record for the company. He accepted and began to record. The name AWOLNATION is derived from his own high school nickname and has stuck ever since.

While the band is mostly known for their hit single, "Sail", they released their first full length album, Megalithic Symphony in 2011 and the album took off. The single, "Sail" went platinum in the U.S. and double platinum in Canada and continues to climb the charts as its been used in many different things such as a video on youtube of Jeb Corliss base jumping in a wing-suit. The album itself was released March 15, 2011 right before the band went on tour. The shows usually sell out days before the performances and continue to grow bigger and bigger with every live performance.
