Avalon Drive are announcing a special pre-release Brisbane show at The Zoo on Wednesday August 6, where the Brisbane four-piece will preview newly recorded tracks, live, which will feature on the bands forthcomming EP release through SonyBMG.
This will be one of the only chances fans will get to experience the new tracks live before the EP’s release later in August, including the band’s new single which will go to radio mid-August.
“It’s been stressful, hectic and amazing,” guitarist Shane O’Keeffe describes the writing process. “We have really put our hearts into this EP and couldn't be prouder,” adds singer, Damion Page.
“It’s definitely a more mature sound than what has been heard from previous Avalon Drive,” says O’Keeffe.
Having played as Rove’s (Channel Ten) house band in 2006, the band spent much of their career on the road touring with bands such as INXS, The Veronicas, Fall Out Boy, All American Rejects, Yelllowcard and Matchbook Romance.
“For sharp, polished, high-octane rock how can you go past Avalon Drive? They have kick-ass songs that stick in your head for weeks.” – Kirsty Brown, National Street Press
“Avalon Drive is a band with all the ingredients in place; the songs, the sound, the live energy, and the look.” – Mark Bulgin, Myspace
“This band is a polished act that has an appealing punk poppy sound that deserves to be heard by audiences world wide, when you listen to the song you instantly think to yourself that this is a band you want to see live” – Colin Blake, MTV Talent/Artist Relations Manager.
