Moonraker is a rock band based in Brooklyn, NY. The band originated in Boston, when two film students, David Moltz and Kody Akhavi, and their roommate, drummer Dan Mintzer, began experimenting with electronic music. They were joined by Kelli Scarr and Dan Chen, and immediately a strong connection was formed between the five of them. Musically, the band has never been easily categorized. Their sound has been described as electronic rock and experimental dance rock; they have been compared to Björk, Portishead, Stereolab, early U2 and the Police. Over the last two years Moonraker has performed alongside Metric, Elefant, The Stars, Ambulance LTD, and Broken Social Scene, developing a faithful fan base in the Northeast. The band won WBOS' Best New Band in Boston [in 2001], they receive regular airplay on college and satellite radio, and recently they were awarded Best New Band at the 2003 Boston Music Awards. Their debut LP Nada Brahma sold 5,000 copies independently, and their self-titled 2003 release, out on Immergent Records, has sold over 1000 copies to date.
