Solar Systems was a space rock/shoegaze band based in Fargo, ND in the late 2000's.

About

Formed in 2007, when frequent recording collaborators Ryan Veitch and Sean Murray decided to work together on an actual band, after recording each others projects as well as other local bands. Enlisting Gabriel Oliver on drums and frequent Veitch bassist Noah Schafer, they began working out songs. With no clear, prominent lyricist, they took a collaborative approach, dividing the songs between the various members and then discussing and editing what they came up with as a group. This methodical approach was a hallmark of Solar Systems, and was reflected in the complexity of the music. They recorded the songs at Veitch's family farmhouse, and released the album, Supercollider, in 2008. Veitch and Schafer's former Poets and Thieves bandmate Alyssa Vistad provided guest vocals on some tracks.

Solar Systems played in around Fargo, particularly at the Nestor and The Aquarium, until Oliver moved away summer of 2008. He returned for a one off reunion show January 9th, 2010 at the Nestor.
