Biography
Aliens Vs. Robots is the culmination of the creativity of three talented Oklahoma musicians resulting in a sound that is upbeat and unique, evoked from the infinite inspiration of cosmic space. Blending the unconventional and stellar sounds of Built to Spill with the fiery and angst-ridden sides of Modest Mouse, AVR has developed a style that is energetic, accessible, and adventurous.
“With a name like Aliens Vs. Robots, you’d expect these Oklahoma City indie rockers to be interstellar. They are.” -Joshua Boydston, OK Gazette
AVR was assembled in the spring of 2006. Singer/songwriter/guitarist Nick Campbell, bassist David Steele and drummer Jon Childress complete the indie space rock trio.
“Music is probably not the easiest way to express yourself, but we think it’s one of the most rewarding. We try to write songs that we would want to listen to.” -Jon Childress, Drums
The band has played numerous venues around Oklahoma City and Norman, such as VZD’s, The Deli, The Conservatory, Belle Ilse Brewery and The Blue Note, as well as multiple benefit shows including Project OKC’s Raising Haiti. Other accomplishments include a feature article in the Oklahoma Gazette in February 2011, radio play and interview on 105.3 The Spy FM in April 2010, and a Q and A feature in the Daily Oklahoman in October 2008.
