Spaceships

Spaceships is Jessie Waite & Kevin LaRose. Once, we were thinking about starting a band and that didn’t work out. Then a couple years later we tried again, and that wasn’t happening either. Then, we tried a third time, and we somehow managed to pull together Spaceships.

Spaceships is a band that plays noise-pop-bedroom-garage-punk. We write songs about life, mountains, and also other things like death and working. We’ve been compared to Times New Viking, Black Sabbath, and Guided By Voices. A couple of months ago, we decided to record an LP. So that’s done now. It’s called Cool Breeze Over the Mountains which is actually Keanu’s name translated from, I think, the Hawaiian language. We love Keanu, and we think the world fails to understand him. We are not being ironic or facetious when we say that. Stop failing Keanu, world.

Our picture and/or some words about our music have been featured in LA Weekly, LA Record, Buzzbands, Spin (only the iPAd app edition, so don’t get too worked up), Passion of the Weiss, and once this blog from Spain wrote about us and we got about 700 downloads, but that site shut down :( . Our songs are frequently played on KXLU, the best radio station. We like to play lots of shows, even if sometimes we don’t feel like going out cuz we’re too sad. We’ve got an awesome one coming up in Palm Springs. I hear there’s a pool and we are going to get drunk out of our minds. Oh, we have also released an EP and a 7″. Guess what? We also have a music video, and another one is in “pre-production.” They both star us cuz it’s our band and we can’t afford Keanu.
