Landing is an American indie rock band from Connecticut, United States. Genres used to describe Landing's music include ambient, shoegaze, slowcore, and space rock.[1] Past members have included Dick Baldwin (guitar, bass) and Peter Baumann (not the same musician who was once a member of Tangerine Dream). The most current line up features Daron Gardner (bass) and John Bent (drums).

History

Originally named May Landing as a duo, the group changed the name to Landing in 1998 with the additions of Dick Baldwin and Daron Gardner.

Landing returned June 2012 with the release of their eighth LP and first LP on Geographic North, entitled Landing. The nine songs were written and recorded over the six-year hiatus following Gravitational IV. "Heart Finds the Beat" was the first single released off the album.

Since 2012, Landing has released three LPs including Third Sight and Bells In New Towns on El Paraiso Records, and Complekt on These Are Not Records. The band has also released four EPs including Wave Lair, II, Body Diffuser, and Taeppe.

In December 2016, American webzine Somewherecold ranked Third Sight No. 2 on their Somewherecold Awards 2016 list.[2]
