Leaving Venus is a four-piece Indie/Alt-Rock band from the Catawba-Valley region of western North Carolina. It was conceived and founded by David Spurlock in 2006. Band members include founder David Spurlock (vocals, bass, keyboards and guitars), Michael Miller (guitars and vocals), Chris Cornwell (bass, guitars, drums and percussion) and Kelly Poovey (vocals, guitars and keyboard). They released their first LP entitled One Night Only in 2007, (available at iTunes.) Their songs are usually guitar based with catchy melodically driven retro-influenced hooks. Spurlock, Martin and Poovey are the principle songwriters, but songwriting credits are shared by all band members. Their current focus is on recording new material and building a fan base (known as Space Cadets in the Leaving Venus Universe), largely through the internet. They regularly submit songs for television and film industry use.
