York based rock kraken, going from strength to strength.
Career high lights include T in the Park, Cambridge Rock Festival and IndigO2 performances, along with rave reviews of their debut album, the band are currently setting their sights on conquering the European market whilst working on their second album to be released in 2014.

Forged from the members of The Seahorses/Yards, Hijak Oscar, Idle Jack and the Big Sleep and The Blackwater Trio, We Could Be Astronauts are an unrelenting riff machine that combine the iconic rock sound of yesteryear with the modern rock giants of today with a hairy vengeance.

'...intelligently crafted, and wonderfully delivered, lyrics...' - Billy Jackson, Soundsphere.
