Wooden Satellites is a band that strays into electro-pop and darkwave while always keeping one foot firmly planted in pure indie rock. Hailing from a location that couldn't be farther from the cultural epicenters of American pop culture, the members of Wooden Satellites aspire to write songs with staying power, always reaching for the landmark musical moments that brought them through the common horrors of midwestern living. This is accomplished through the embrace of several sound palettes, mixing male and female lead vocals, traditional rock instrumentation with synthesizers, and bright melodies with somber lyrical content. Wooden Satellites spent the winter of 2010 preparing to release their first professionally recorded album, "Let's Make Crimes" which includes nine songs that truly encapsulate all of the above.
