Bio

Formed in January 2003 Astro’n’out is now one of the up–to-date indie-rock bands in Latvia well known as socially active musicians, not only for participating in many social events, but also for their music written for several documentaries and feature films, touching such topics as human trafficking, handicapped people and national patriotism. The band first appears with the radio single “Part of Riga” (Daïa Rîgas) – positive and catchy song about one of the most criminal parts of Riga city where the young songwriter and soloist of the band Mara comes from. The song becomes well recognized and popular due to its non-standard subject and untypical vocal.

Afterwards the band is forecasted to be the one hit wonders, but in a while manages to prove themselves with several more successful radio singles and in the year 2006 their debut album “Kuð Kuð” receives the award of “Best Rock Album” in annual Latvian Music Awards.

2006 comes with entry in MTV Baltic Top with a song “Ne gravitatei” ( No to gravity) and Astro’n’out becomes regularly shown on MTV Baltic as well as all other TV stations in Latvia. Astro’n’out also gets nominated for “MTV Europe Awards” in catergory of “New Sounds of Europe” 2007.

Year 2008 turns out very fulfilled. Astro’n’out are having a tour around China – in Beijing and Shanghai. Also the band is invited to be the guest musicians in the new album tour of the biggest Latvian pop-rock band “Brainstorm”, so Astro’n’out takes part as warm-upers in all their summer concerts around the Latvia that gathers together more than 80 000 listeners.

In december 2008 their second studio album called „Astro’ acoustic” is released.
