Be it punk, jazz, gypsy, blues, alternative, indie, ska, swing, or even tango, Avenue offers its fans an ever-changing, ever-evolving experience. Founded by four long time friends in 2005 (adding a fifth member in 2008), the band preaches an undying belief in originality. Avenue refuses to subscribe to any one genre, instead branching across many different styles of music to create a very unique, fun, and high energy experience. Fans of Avenue have come to expect this exciting and interactive experience from the shows, and are never disappointed.
The band is comprised of five members. Each of the members of Avenue is a gifted musician who might have sought a musical career individually, but in this case, Avenue is greater than the sum of its parts. They set out to start making music that both stemmed from and combined each of their personal preferences and knowledge of music into something totally new. Their unique, danceable style has won them a large, solid, and diverse fan base, and they continue to draw crowds of fans wherever and whenever they perform.
To the delight of fans, after 3 years of intensive writing, re-writing, searching, polishing, and performing, Avenue self-produced its first full-length album, "We're Not A Damn Carnival", in September 2008. A second album is already in the works, and will be released in 2009.

Kind of funny a band that says "Think locally" also says "we don't want to share the stage with local bands". Poo. Sucks you guys didn't play tonight with Gogol Bordello. Hope to see you play again soon!
