With so many great bands out there today, it has become increasingly challenging to stand out and leave a lasting impression in the hearts and minds of rock fans everywhere. Aeraco’s award winning music, charting topping songs and powerful shows have continued to help make a name for the Chicago based rockers. Combining old school 80’s metal with newer modern influences, their twist on hard rock b
rings an interesting experience to the table. They’re not reinventing the wheel nor are they pioneering a subgenre of a subgenre. The band has kept it straightforward by simply focusing on putting out kick ass songs with catchy hooks and memorable riffs. Aeraco can track its roots back to December of 2013 where they spent a few years playing the local scene while jamming covers from their favorite bands. They self-released their debut album “All Or Nothing” in February of 2015. The album helped them win the “Best Rock Performer” Award from the Chicago Music Awards in 2016 and the band quickly began to tour nationally. Aeraco’s high energy shows, wild stage antics, comedic stage banter, guitar battles and constant barrage of powerful material quickly garnered them increasing attention all over the world. After a few years of touring, the band caught the attention of a few record labels. Aeraco eventually signed a deal with Dark Star Records in association with MVD and Sony Music Entertainment. By this time, the band was due to hit the studio for their sophomore release. “Baptized By Fire” was released in July of 2017 on Dark Star Records and was quickly well received with incredible reception from critics and fans alike. Baptized hit the charts coming in at #6 Most Added in the Nation, #27 on Top 30 Loud Rock and #27 on Top 50 Metal Contraband while also hitting the radio overseas. England, Spain, Poland, Italy, South America, France, Germany and a number of other countries quickly started spinning Baptized and in turn the word spread like wildfire. Aeraco continues to make itself into a household name by releasing self-produced music and playing concerts that show a relentless dedication to the craft. Rock is not only a genre-it’s a lifestyle… and Aeraco is alive and well. They continue to tour the country and have shared the bill with some of the worlds biggest rock bands including Alice in Chains, Five Finger Death Punch, Hollywood Vampires, Dokken, Art of Anarchy and many more. A growing number of hard rock fans across the world are joining the bands ranks and becoming loyal fans. Aeraco continues to help keep rock alive while welcoming in their fans with open arms.
