Madison Avenue started in the Spring 0f 2003, under the name Reasons Untold. After recording 2 full length albums, 5 ep's, and sorting through 20 different singers to find the right fit, they decided to break up in January of 07. They left their pop punk style of writing to start making music with more depth and substance, searching for the sound they wanted both musically and vocally. Childhood friend Cole Roberts joined band members: Nathan Shawnee (Guitar), Jeremy Castaldo (Drums), Levi Hallett (Bass), and JD Huggins (Guitar) in the Spring of 07 to create this music together. Madison Avenue is currently recording their first and newest ep together, titled "Seasons" which is scheduled to release in December of 07. Madison Avenue also plans to be playing shows later this year, through the spring. Summer Tour is currently in the works for 08 starting in June through early August. Be on the look out for new music and show dates. Come be a part of the passion and desire these guys have for creating music and for making new friendships. See you soon!
Also be on the look out for solo projects from both Nathan (Bittersweet Confessions) and Cole (This Could Be You) this coming year!
