So it's come to this! We knew that eventually our beloved drummer and
dear friend Keegan Curry was going to have to depart us for the
greener, sunnier, and better film-school-having Austin, Texas. Keegan
has been an invaluable member of Airwave Bandits from the earliest days
and a fantastic friend. Providing the our rock-solid rhythmic base, a
wonderfully levelheaded and delightfully quirky attitude, a dedicated
approach to music and an amazing aptitude at every instument he
touched, Keegan was truly an incredible person to make music with. It
was not uncommon for Airwave to drive to a show with the radio blasting
in Keegan's beloved station wagon Stevie Nix (immortalized on our
T-Shirts and album cover) with Keegan at the wheel, the poor car
stuffed to bursting with gear. So integral was Keegan's contribution to
the band that we knew there was no way we could continue as Airwave
Bandits without him, it just couldn't be the same. So it's with a heavy
heart that we retire the name and most of the repertoire of Airwave
Bandits. Zach and Tim will continue to make music together here in the
Twin Cities, you can look forward to hearing a whole awesome new set of
songs from us in a few months (maybe with a few Airwave songs thrown
in). But the time has come to end Airwave Bandits as a band. At the
risk of sounding really cheesy, we'll always remember all of the
amazing times we had with all of you, our fans and friends and
supporters. From our shows at The Depot in Hopkins, to our big breaks
at the Triple Rock, and especially to the shows in basements,
backyards, coffee shops, and living rooms. We'd like to thank everyone
from the bottom of our hearts who's ever supported us, even if that
just means showing up to one of our shows. To our long time fans, we
love you so much! Thanks for being amazingly supportive, and helping
three kids truly achieve their dreams of playing rock'n'roll. We
couldn't have done it without you. We wish keegan the best of luck at
the University of Texas, and we truly hope he'll be able to make it up
here for at least one reunion show!
