Combining the noisy pop of Sonic Youth with the eerie nihilism of The Cure, singer/guitarist Holly Muñoz lays down meaty Crazy Horse-like riffs while vocally ranging in style from the breathiness of the Cocteau Twins to the sharp bite of PJ Harvey.

Playing progressive, yet accessible indie rock, Aviette is Minneapolis, USA-based band made up of Holly Muñoz (guitar/vocals), Justin Hartke (bass), and Kyle Larson (drums). Until we hear from Dave., their first full-length record was recorded with Chicago-based engineer Jonathan Raymond and producer Devon Bryant (Sybris, Crush Kill Destroy, Brighton MA, Scotland Yard Gospel Choir, The Saps).

Aviette receives regular airplay on 89.3 The Current (MPR), KFAI, WMCN, KGSM, WLUW, and was recently featured on Minneapoliscast. Aviette has performed at the 7th Street Entry, Triple Rock Social Club, Fine Line, Turf Club, Varsity Theater, and Wellstone World Music Day in Minneapolis, the Congress Theater, Hideout, and Subterranean in Chicago, Luther's Blues in Madison, the Onopa Brewery in Milwaukee, the Kraftbrau and Trinity House Theater in Michigan, and colleges and universities throughout U.S.
