Addison Road (CD - 2008)

Addison Road is a band who truly put their devotion to the task; their live shows became legend in the Christian rock world for both their fiery tight-knit performances and their commitment to Christian causes. It's a passion and depth that shines on the Dallas, Texas, band's sparkling self-titled debut, an album that combines the pop sensibility of Avril Lavigne with a driving brand of rock from the Jars of Clay school. Jenny Simmons's darkly timbered vocals punctuate tracks with a sense of righteous swagger. The band further reveals a breadth to its influences with a spirited take on secular indie rockers Nada Surf's 2005 single "Always Love," a Zen ode to the value of kindness. minimize
