Air Traffic Controller

After a buzz filled year, which included a nod from MTV, performing at the Boston Garden, and teaming up with legendary power-pop maestro/producer, Bleu, Air Traffic Controller has signed on with Sugarpop Records and has released an extraordinary debut, bound to shake up the airwaves in 2010.

The hype initially started when singer Dave Munro was overseas, serving in the US Navy as a real-life air traffic controller, sending home songs he'd recorded on his old 4-track. "Making music, at that time, was merely a way of coping with homesickness and a long distance relationship," says Munro of his Navy days, "but things changed when people started listening." Upon completing his enlistment, Munro returned home to a surprising number of fans in Boston and immediately began constructing a recording studio with his brother, drummer, Rich. As the heartfelt songs trickled out, an acoustic demo of "Don't Tell Me What To Do" reached one of Munro's favorite musical artists, Bleu, who quickly signed on as producer for a full-length debut. The album, entitled "The One", is a charming, yet daring, creation of classic rock proportion and head-turning indie pop freshness, that is proving itself irresistible to just about anyone with ears.
