The Origin of Orbital Velocity
Combining decades of musical experience, Orbital Velocity, was born of the musical pursuits of multi instrumentalist and vocalist, Andrew Earl, better known simply as, Drew. Patiently, and for many years, Drew sought out the right musicians with a specific mix and chemistry of backgrounds and ability to form what would become Orbital Velocity.
With decades of combined musical experience, the band set out to create a kick ass musical and visual experience filled with great songs crafted with care and left with room for improvisation and exploration.
