Aphelion started in 2003 when Cory Shaw (production, keyboards, guitar, bass) and Mike Mosteller (drums, percussion) joined musical forces to create a hybrid electronic music experience that fuses their trance and progressive roots with a live organic sound.

In 2004 Eric Brand (guitar) joined the group and together the Aphelion trio have played many of the top music festivals and clubs throughout the midwest, molding a unique sound of their own along the way.

Aphelion is currently in the studio working on their debut album ...scheduled to be released in the summer of 2007.
