This energetic, female-fronted pop rock band that hails from Texas is poised to break on the scene with their unique brand of high power musical production and poignant, provocative lyrics. Addison Road has spent the last 5 years opening for numerous nationally recognized acts and most prominently as the featured band for Planet Wisdom youth conference. While affording them the opportunity to be in front of hundreds of thousands of youth, these conferences have helped to hone their stagecraft and songwriting focus to laser-like point that dissects and addresses the issues of the contemporary youth culture. Produced by award-winning producer Chris Stevens (TobyMac, Sanctus Real, Mandisa), this self-titled debut sonically represents current cutting-edge pop rock music. Equally at home on the Rock, Top 40 formats and able to execute skillful ballads, Addison Road will be the group to watch for 2008.

absolutely loved it!| Posted January 30, 2008
i joined NRT just so i could listen to the album! I knew it was going to be good but WOW its more then good its great! There is something so wholesome and unique yet fun about their music that i just cannot get enough of! I enjoyed every song tremendously but what do i know of Holy i think is the most touching song on the album and jenny really sings it so sincerly. Addison Road is the band to look out for in 2008 and i am going to buy this CD March 18th without a doubt because to put it simply its great music!!
Apple Pie| Posted January 29, 2008
When you eat out a lot consistently for a few days or even weeks at a time, you begin to crave that home-cooked meal? That chicken fried steak with a baked potato and apple pie sounds so good. When you finally get it, its one of the greatest things you've tasted in a while.
Consider this album that meal. In a world that is dominated by the secular "junk food" music, it is nice to find music that brings you back to whats important: Christ. This album is just a reminder of how great God is and how we need Him more desperately than ever.
This song has the perfect mixture of upbeat to keep you dancing and ballad to pull at your heart. "This Could Be Our Day" is an anthem to get our generation excited to follow Christ and do His work. The album then transitions into "All That Matters" the radio single that talks about God being the center of our lives, because His love is all that matters in the end. The album continues on flowing together all the way to the end when the incredibly heart-felt ballad "What Do I Know of Holy?" describes how we all have felt. It is about the great mystery of God. In reality what do we know of the Great, the Almighty, the Holy One.
Take my word for it, you want to sit and have a bit of this pie.

I liked it, I will have to listen to it again before I give a full review. I loved "What do I know about Holy" These guys are just funky enough to be fun but still have something pertinent to say about life in God. I will listen to it again for sure.
awestuck| Posted January 29, 2008
i first heard Addison Road when they opened for Hawk Nelson last summer.
and they imeadiately made me a fan.
i love all the ongs on this new album, and am "awestruck" by how the Holy Spirit can speak through music, theirs in particular.
the last song on the album was really convicting for me personally because i seem to struggle with knowing all the right answers at church, and knowing how to sound like a die hard Christian, but i sometimes am speaking simply because i can. Filled with "empty words".
This is such an inspiring album.
i highly recommend it.
God bless

Well to start off on the right foot, I only gave it 4.5 stars because you've got to give room for them to surprise you next time!! I think this album is absolutly awesome. I am so excited for them as they go on this incredile ride. I have been a fan for about 4 years now, but this is definitly a breakthrough for them. The quality of this album is just so much better than the ones in the past and the creativity was bumped up a few more notches. The lyrics are so much deeper and you can hear it in the music. I am so happy that they got signed and are going to get better and better! God Bless
great new cd!| Posted January 29, 2008
I'm loving this cd!! It's so creative and not what we always hear from pop/rock groups! I love Jenny's voice, it's great and very unique! Awesome new band that you should definitely check out, and then buy their CD when it comes out!
