Formed in 2009, this altpop/rock band took their name from a lyric in a Catherine Wheel song.
After releasing a pair of albums independently (The Halo Effect 2009; Black Holes & Butterflies 2010) to wide acclaim, the founding members of the band: Greg Torsone - guitars/production; Chuck Cox - bass, joined forces with a new vocalist, American Idol/America's Got Talent Finalist Adam Lee Decker, and released The Thrill of Freefall in 2013.
The first single from that EP "December" is featured in the Every New Day Pictures film Secrets in the Fall, and earned the band Grammy consideration.
Spaceship Days released Saving the Universe in July 2014. Brian Avery - drums, signed on to support the release on their Southern Wilds Tour. In 2017 the quartet followed up with A Pocket Full of Stars. The release gained them the attention of Spectra Music Group, and the band signed with the label in the summer of 2018.
Spaceship Days Spectra Music Group debut Into the Blue is set for a summer 2019 release.
Armed with the fusion of chemistry, mature songwriting, crisp production, and a spectacular live show Spaceship Days is a band for any music lover.

"With arms-wide-open positivity and a jubilant pop-rock aesthetic, Spaceship Days’ anthems are inspirational, not saccharine."
Corbie Hill - Indy Week
"Spaceship Day’s music is unlike many of their contemporaries’ simply because it is so interesting and genre-bending. It’s rock, but it’s pop. It’s electronica, but it’s happy. It’s reminiscent of everything from new wave to post-grunge, but you can spin it at a dance club. It’s the kind of music that can find widespread appeal simply because there is so much to it that is appealing on so many levels"
Andy Frisk - Shutter 16 Magazine
“'Saving the Universe' is a prime example of the evolution of indie music...the rest of the music world better be looking over their shoulders”
Carlos Gnipp - MY Indie Music Blog
"With their catchy melodies, tight arrangements, polished sound, songs that are original yet seem reassuringly familiar and the kind of high level production that most Indie artists can only dream of it’s difficult not to be impressed by [Saving the Universe]..."
Clara Barker - Indie Music Bus
“...[Their] sing-along pop-rock lands on the tender side.”
Star News Online
“You were really great at the College Music Fest.... Matter of time before you guys are all over the radio. Great songs with gigantic hooks..”
John Custer - Grammy Nominated Producer
“A breath of clean air in today’s sullied musical atmosphere, Spaceship Days is honest alternative rock music driven by drums, bass, and keyboard, a guitar carefully gilded with reverb, and a singer with a crystal-clear voice who never waxes showy or pretentious.”
S. McCauley - Sonic Smash Music
“Their "Black Holes…” LP turned heads all across the country, which is part of what makes “The Thrill of Freefall” so exciting; the new EP serves as an introduction of their impeccably precise and clarion new vocalist, Adam Lee Decker of “American Idol” and “America’s Got Talent” fame”
Cody Plucker, Mog Music Network associate - Hunter Media
“Precise engineering, skilled musicianship and unbridled talent leave listeners with a feeling of having just heard something distinctly different and special.”
Rhonda Readence - Exciting City Magazine
