CITABRIA

Formed in 2008, the band’s debut EP, The Stereo Guillotine, was released in 2010 and immediately started gaining recognition locally, as well as overseas. The Stereo Guillotine was sold on several of Germany’s top online music distribution sites and also made it possible for the band to perform in Portugal for their version of American Idol. The following year, Citabria won a gold medal for the Your MusicOlympicks Battle of the Bands. Citabria has opened for acts such as Awolnation at the San Diego IndieFest and The Limousines at the Left Coast Live music festival. It has also landed spots on the online music streaming sites Pandora, Spotify, and iTunes.
In 2013, the band managed to raise a $6,000 Kickstarter campaign to fund the recording of its full-length album, Exit Reality. The LP was recorded at Jingle Town Records (owned by the band Green Day) and was released in early 2015.
