Alpha Boötis

Alpha Boötis is a Space Disco Synth Metal band from Montréal, Canada, formed in 2017. Since then, they have independently released an EP, Episode I, and a full-length album, <a href="spotify:album:31jm5Mqxfwr5SKMdDgnGqn" data-name="Space Vikings & Other Stories">Space Vikings & Other Stories</a> in 2019. Fusing the bombast and intricate storytelling of old prog rock, the grooves of 80’s dance music and the drive and intensity of heavy metal with a solid dose of lush synths, Alpha Boötis takes you on a journey with each song, travelling across a fictional cosmos filled with wonder and adventure. They have played more than a dozen shows in the Montreal area, sharing the stage with <a href="spotify:artist:5LWb35Abxcm6ZzP5MTRhlh" data-name="Bird Problems">Bird Problems</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:2fSu2wIcIngdOwnDigi4JA" data-name="Honey Beard">Honey Beard</a> , <a href="spotify:artist:4LXaqntarVcHPpcLpRj8fr" data-name="Mellow Fields">Mellow Fields</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:6OP6mqRVRrEI1c292rSevv" data-name="Neon Rise">Neon Rise</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:6nEInGNFgfcH6MifiSqOfU" data-name="Eternal Closure">Eternal Closure</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:3TL8bZp0hus44qLYy937zA" data-name="The Space Wizards">The Space Wizards</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:3jZIdEgt9wVFLuP2j9hDzs" data-name="Earth's Yellow Sun">Earth's Yellow Sun</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:50bY8uqJevNzqWYs9AJ9OI" data-name="She Died in a Parking Lot">She Died in a Parking Lot</a>.
