Artist Info: Alyson Avenue

Alyson Avenue is a classic rock band from Sweden formed in 1989 by a couple of friends who intended to play rock in the way Treat and Europe amongst others did. Its musical style was described as AOR. Originally, the band had a male vocalist, eventually replaced by Anette Olzon, now of Nightwish. The band released two albums: Presence of Mind and Omega.

The music tended to a much more poppy sound for a while but at the rehearsals you could hear the band playing everything from hard rock to even soul. [read more...]
