Angels & Airwaves (often abbreviated as AVA) is an American rock band formed in 2005 by Blink-182 guitarist and vocalist Tom DeLonge. The band emerged in the midst of DeLonge's hiatus from Blink-182 and quickly distinguished itself with a distinctive blend of alternative rock, space rock, and synth-pop, married with grandiose themes of hope, love, and human connection. Angels & Airwaves' music is characterized by its use of atmospheric elements, epic soundscapes, and the optimistic, ambitious vision of DeLonge, which is often reflected in the band's videos and the transmedia storytelling of their projects, linking their music to films and novels.

Since their formation, Angels & Airwaves have released a series of albums that have contributed to their cult status among fans. Their discography showcases a consistent evolution of sound and ambition, including albums like "We Don't Need to Whisper" (2006) and "I-Empire" (2007), up to their more recent releases such as "Lifeforms" (2021). The band's recent tracks, including "Rebel Girl" and "Euphoria," and ones like "Paper Thin," "Restless Souls," and "Losing My Mind," reflect a renewed energy and the band's commitment to exploring new soundscapes while staying true to their thematic core. Despite lineup changes through the years—with DeLonge being the constant frontman—Angels & Airwaves has remained a significant and influential entity in the rock music scene, celebrated for their ambitious artistic vision and their contributions to a genre they have helped to evolve.
