More often than not, a band's sound is directly influenced by its surroundings. Be it the dark and ominous winter or the bright and enthusiastic summer, Northpilot's music pays homage to its Midwestern stomping grounds, incorporating its dynamic sound into a live performance which one reviewer hails as “…being shot through a cannon into a brick wall of sound.“ (Real Detroit Weekly)

The Michigan transplants pooled their talents in 2006, cutting its teeth as a four piece and creating its vision in a second story walk-up in the Wicker Park neighborhood of Chicago.

Having recently upgraded to a 6 piece, the band spent the past 4 years building a solid resume, gracing notable windy city and Midwest mainstays including The Chicago House of Blues, Double Door, Subterranean, Martyr’s, Reggie’s Rock Club, Lager House (Detroit) and The Crofoot (Detroit), sharing the stage with hipster heavyweights Josiah Wolf, The Silent Years, Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr., Reptar and pop punk band All Time Low (7-11 Battle of the Bands Competition, July 2010).

In addition to landing weekend headlining shows at many Chicago venues, 2010 saw the band release its debut EP, The Bright Brigade, which continues to generate buzz by entertainment rags and blogs.
