Influences
All around, the biggest influences would probably have to be: The Beatles, Barenaked ladies, Cream/Eric Clapton, and some Jack Johnson. Believe me there are a lot more than these, any classic rock band honestly, the radio never leaves 92.3
Hey, we're FLORENCE AVE. lets see, as of right now we've only really been playing together as a band for about six months or so which is kinda funny since i (Joel) have played the guitar for the last couple of years and my brother (Jared) used to play drums for a jazz band like 12 years ago and my cousin (Jake) started playing the bass in orchestra when he was in 5th grade, so you would think that being as close of friends as we have always been our whole lives that something would have come out alot longer than 6 months ago. But me and jared started playing some songs together that i learned , and meanwhile Jake was out jammin with Louis who was just playin around on the guitar for 5 years but him and jake started playin about a year ago and it wasnt till about 7 months ago we all went.. hmmm wait a sec.... Two brothers, playing singing, with no band, cousin and friend playing bass and lead guitar with no band... I guess it was just a matter of time.
I created my own profile using nUCLEArcENTURy.COM and you should too!
Thanks for adding me on! I'm happy to be on your list.
My 5th CD is steadily heading towards a Fall release and is sounding great so far. Money is tight, though, and you could make a big difference by simply buying some of my music from www. philputnam. com or iTunes. Your support is much needed and greatly appreciated.

Hi, I'm looking to get a band to play at an anniversary party on November 10th. I wanted to see if you guys were available and what kind of music you play? I have heard some of your stuff and it sounds good! Let me know if you guys are available. Thanks, Lindsey
HI THERE WHAT ARE YOU UP TO ? IT WAS SUCH A NICE DAY TODAY...I WENT TO P TOWN...NOW THAT SUMMER IS OVER THE SUN COME'S OUT..YOU SHOULD GO ADD YOUR PIC TO MY NEW MAP...TTYL...LOL
Hi Jared :D I was at The Big Kahuna a while back ago...four or five months ago I guess, and I thought that was you up on the stage...but I wasn't sure. Guess it was. Hope you're doing good!
you're one of those bands that sounds pretty good in the studio, but the live shows are where your strength is. for people who haven't seen these guys live you need to. good luck louis and the rest of the guys.
Hey guys I just wanted to say that i heard you guys at the Clackamas County Fair on Saturday. I sat and listened for a while. You guys are amazing. I even bought a cd, haha. I like it a lot. Can't wait to see you guys play again sometime.
