Windsor Airlift

Band, *2002 US, Owatonna, Minnesota

A.k.a. Tony Johnson & Andy Johnson

Windsor Airlift are an American ambient post-rock band formed in the fall of 2002 in Owatonna, Minnesota. Originally the band consisted of brothers Andy and Tony Johnson and Adam Young. Initially a punk-pop band the trio self-issued their debut release 'The Basement Ep' in 2003. Subsequently the band abandoned nearly every aspect of punk-pop as they began writing music influenced by acts such as Unwed Sailor. 'Selections For A Fallen Soldier' followed, with a second volume released in 2004. Early 2005, the band released a four-song EP - 'Hotels'. Additionally two albums, 'Moonfish Parachutist' and Qiu!', both entirely recorded in Young's basement. 2006 saw the release of 'Ocean City Park', while the band went over a lull with Young's musical project Owl City gaining popularity the following year. The group reunited in 2009 to record the album 'We Rule!', which was also Adam Young's last release with the group at the present time. Windsor Airlift played dozens of shows throughout junior high/high school and into their college years, until Owl City signed with Universal-Republic in february 2009. Tony and Andy continued to write music for Windsor Airlift and have released four full-length albums and a live Lp as a duo.
