Asteria is an American pop/rock band from Crown Point, Indiana.
History
Asteria formed in 2003 at Crown Point High School and began playing local shows, building a strong regional following. After releasing their first album, 2004's Broken-Hearted Lullabies And Hope-Filled Dreams, they played at the Indiana Region Rumble in 2004 and won a number of regional awards that year. but was pushed back to February 2007. The group toured nationally in support of the album.
In February 2008, the group announced it is no longer with Broken English. They toured the U.S. with Bedlight for Blue Eyes and The High Court in the spring of 2008. During the summer of 2008, they toured with This Century.
Over the next 2 years, Asteria had been recording in their home-studio to prepare for a new album and tour. It was announced in the summer of 2009 that they indeed were releasing a new album the following year. As 2010 drew near, Asteria along with two of the members older brother Joel Henderson (Comeuppence Network), released a string of promotional videos about their upcoming album as well as the title: 'Momentum.' The band revealed their new album with a new sleak, mature, and progressive appearance and vibe. This includes the band itself as well. 'Momentum' was a fan-favorite as well as a universal key to any doors Asteria may not had been able to open in the years prior.
After about a year of shows and promotion for their latest album 'Momentum,' The band slowly shifted in to a quiet hiatus. Some members of the band have continued to perform music under different project titles. Although 3 of the 5 band members relocated away from the bands 'home-base' studio "ABG Studios (Always Be Genius)," [Owned and Operated by Seth Henderson in Crown Point, IN] - The band is still in contact and have even teased more shows/a new album. This hasn't been confirmed 'officially.'
