Air Traffic Controller — Current Clients

Air Traffic Controller have created a place all their own in the indie pop world. After serving in the US Navy as an actual air traffic controller, singer/songwriter Dave Munro built a legacy with "ATC" for crafting heartfelt, luscious and genuine indie-folk-pop songs that are timeless and classic. The band took their time writing and demoing their fifth album, and the fans have not left their side, still streaming over 150 thousand songs per week on Spotify.

When 2020 started, the band featuring Adam Salameh, Adrian Aiello, Joe Campbell, Steve Scott and Seth Kasper alongside Dave, were right in the middle of recording album number five. Well, this is a year for the books, and ATC had to post-pone their studio sessions to be safe.

"Sometimes" is their new single, written in 2019, and mostly tracked before Covid hit everyone's calendars. The band was able to collaborate remotely to bring this new "classic" ATC anthem to its soaring finale and eventual debut on Tuesday August 25th. On this new single we hear the band collaborating in the studio, highlighting guitar licks, and self-producing alongside Boston producer/engineer Dan Cardinal (Darlingside, Henry Jamison, Josh Ritter, Ballroom Theives). If you have loved any ATC song in their past, you will love "Sometimes" just as much, if not more. It's a wave of a song that pulls you in from the intro and takes you on a beautiful ride.

Air Traffic Controller have achieved a lot in their past. NPR Hot 100 List, Billboard Hot 100 Fest, Guardian UK Band of the Day, Alt Nation support, Independent Music Awards, many film, TV, video game, promo placements, airplay all over the world. "Sometimes," is a new start, and a solid bar for what's to come.

From lead-singer Dave Munro on the song: “Sometimes” is about a real relationship. There was so much I wanted to say when it ended, but it was already over and probably for the best. I wanted to tell that person how much I cared, how I was affected, but I remained silent. I made excuses to myself, I was so busy, it was never a good time. Sometimes we bottle our emotions in order to move forward. This song was my way of removing the cap.
