Every Avenue
Aug 1, 2011
Every Avenue formed in 2003 and self-released two EP's in 2004 and 2006 before signing to the Southern California label, Fearless Records, in 2007, who released their acclaimed EP AH!. In February 2008, the band released its debut full length, Shh... Just Go With It and watched it rise to #27 on the Billboard Heatseekers Chart. The record's first single, "Where Were You?" was featured on "MTV's Real World/Road Rules Challenge: The Gauntlet", gaining more than 150,000 downloads on Mark Hoppus' "Hi My Name Is Mark" blog on iTunes. The video also won MTVU's The Freshman.
With their second album Picture Perfect, Every Avenue took things to a new level. The band bounced in and out of studios throughout much of the winter and spring of 2009 working hard on the LP, produced Mitch Allan and Mike Green . The highly anticipated follow up to Shh... Just Go With It, the album had 11 euphoric, huge-sounding tracks, showcasing the band's ability to diversify their hooks. Picture Perfect offered listeners a much wider variety of songs than their debut, ranging from mid-tempo jams to fun sing-a-longs to radio-ready hits. The excited and accomplished vibe radiating from the band reverberates on every track of Picture Perfect, which debuted at #1 on the New Alternative Artist Chart, and #136 in the Billboard Top 200 in November 2009.
In March 2011, the Detroit five-piece announced that they were back in the studio working hard on their third full length album. One month later they had completed the album titled, Bad Habits, and it will be released on August 2nd through Fearless Records. Their lead off single "No One But You" will show listeners that the band has gone for an edgier sound. The video for "No One But You" debuted as MTV Buzzworthy Premiere on July 18th. Every Avenue is currently on the Van Warped Tour through the end of summer.
