About Me

Edited profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

Afraid of Flying are an energetic young 4-some, with distinctive musical chemistry. Influenced by 1920’s jazz-chic and good old timeless rock n roll, our songs transmogrify sultry vocals, blues guitar, funk bass and rockin beats into joyous reggae grooves and moments of pure ethereal space-pop. We hope these sweet, simple sounds take you up, up and away!
