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.

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

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.
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.
