SORRY THIS COMP IS NOW CLOSED!!!!
Meet Idiot Pilot – two gorgeous indie kids who can’t wait to share their haunting, melodic tracks with Virgin Mobile LOUDER gig goers…
Idiot Pilot are Daniel Anderson and Michael Harris, two 18 year-olds from Washington, USA, who have been jamming together since they were twelve years old. Idiot Pilot recently toured the UK in support of Team Sleep and also played some select headline dates of their own. In the US, the duo hit the Taste Of Chaos tour with The Used, My Chemical Romance and Killswitch Engage as well as touring with Open Hand and The Kinison. But there’s more to Idiot Pilot than an impressive gigging CV.
Their music brings together an encyclopedic array of influences. The two childhood friends from Bellingham, Washington, joined forces to fashion a sound that mixed equal parts electronica, post-hardcore and contemporary pop, with a sensibility uniquely their own. The result is a potent, propulsive and powerfully original musical statement that, in a single stroke, catapults Idiot Pilot into the front ranks of today’s most promising young bands.
