Orbit tunes deep into your brain. These guys have
that "something" that all bands hope to achieve."

Saturday night, you're chillin' with friends. Maybe you're walking around the city streets, maybe you're just sitting around in someone's apartment. Either way, there's that vibe. You know what I'm talking about. The Saturday night vibe that resonates through your entire body. You wanna move, live, feel the wonder of the starry night -- you want to "burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars," as Kerouac so eloquently put it. It's time to call the troops and party like you've never partied before. But, like any good party, you gotta have the music. That's where Philadelphia area band Chelsea in Orbit comes in. Their EP burns with feeling. Juan Parejo, the founding member, lead singer and main songwriter, gives a cosmic voice to the trippy guitar work of Gregg Biesiada, Rick Eddy's driving drums and Christian Seidel's throbbing bass. The result is ethereal. "Sugar", "Electric", and "Coming Down", will provide the perfect soundtrack to any Saturday night.

Their songs are very “radio-friendly" and have great hooks and progressions. I’d definitely recommend checking out Chelsea in Orbit for those of you that haven’t had the experience yet." Anthony Caroto, Editor, Origivation Magazine - Origivation Magazine

"Alternately rocking out with spacey reverb effects, trippy guitars and emotional vocals, the quality of the material shines through in multiple facets." Stuart Pitt, Rock Pile - Rock Pile Magazine

"Their web site described them as spacey, but to me their sound was much richer than that. Songs were simple -- two or three chords and catchy melodies --but the orchestration of the lead guitar coupled with the full sound of singer Juan Parejo's rhythms identified CIO's sound as unique."
