What happens when you put four guys from some of the midwests
most promising bands together. You get the Sky Corvair
a
short lived, yet legendary rock outfit. The brief nine months
that Tim Kinsella (Joan of Arc, Cap N Jazz, Owls) Bob Nanna

Rollo Tomasi), Kevin J Frank (Radio Flyer, Haymarket Riot,
Gauge), and Alex Stisser collaborated on music resulted in
12 songs that demonstrate a talented bands ability to explore
various moods and tempos on this album.

to their adventurous and raw charm.
