Skybox is an American indie pop quintet which formed in Tempe, Arizona in 2005.

After singer Tim Ellis moved from Missouri to Tempe with bassist Johnny Kenepaske, they soon formed a trio with drummer Aurelio Damiani. Finally, lead guitarist Christian Fields and keyboardist-percussionist Anthony Hornyak joined. Their musical influences include 1960s psychedelic rock, 1970s classic rock and 1980s New Wave music.
