No one sounds quite like AAaA. They boast eclectic indie-pop, alternative, synthy, and shoegaze tunes that are heavy in up-beat tempos, unforgettable guitar hooks, compelling lyrics, power synths, classic rock keys, melodic bass lines, and world instruments and rhythms. The music is difficult to categorize but results from a mash-up of Indie-pop, New Wave, ‘90’s alternative, Classic Rock, Post Punk, and world (Celtic and bluegrass influences). The boys have a signature sound but find inspiration from Bruce Hornsby and the Noisemakers, Rush, Parliament, REM, Talking Heads, The Cars, David Bowie, Slowdive, Jethro Tull, The Church, U2, The Smiths, The Police, and others.
