Aqueduct (band)
Aqueduct is a Seattle, Washington-based indie pop band originally hailing from Tulsa, Oklahoma. Initially the band was a one-man act, created and produced by David Terry in his bedroom. Supporting members have more recently been added to the group. Aqueduct has played with Seattle bands United State of Electronica, Modest Mouse, and Death Cab for Cutie among others. They have received praise for their application of synthpop meter, drum, and piano, which has become more complex as the band has grown in membership.
History
Aqueduct was founded in Tulsa as the solo project of pop aficionado David Terry. He relocated to Seattle in 2003, and a mere 12 hours after Terry's arrival in Seattle, Aqueduct was opening for Modest Mouse at The Showbox.
After months of culling and polishing new and pre-existing material with the help of producer Matt Pence, Aqueduct completed their full-length album I Sold Gold, along with an EP, Pistols at Dawn. Or Give Me Death was released a few years later.1.
