LAS VEGAS -- Summary

With just three months together in their current lineup, local Las Vegas band (http://www.myppk.com/PPKs/indexC.aspx?PPK=13502), Meade Ave., has taken the next step in defining their unique blend of atmospheric alt rock by releasing their sophomore, five-song EP, “Ionosphere” on Bad Sue Records.

How Las Vegas Rock Band Meade Ave. Started Out

Consisting of three friends that met while working together in restaurants in the Las Vegas hospitality industry, Meade Ave. has existed in its current lineup for just barely over three months. After deciding to part ways with their current frontman/guitarist, long-time friends Seth Peavler and Aaron Paoletta were in search of a new singer/guitarist for Meade Ave. with their same level of drive and dedication when Aaron’s coworker, Joe Arduini, made an offshoot remark about wanting to get back into creating and performing music. It wasn’t long before the trio found themselves in Meade Ave.’s rehearsal space with an instant spark that lead to the writing of three new songs in just three days.

With an EP already released with their former frontman, Meade Ave. made it a priority to record a three-song EP that was reminiscent of the new style that had taken shape with Joe in his place. While “The Meade Ave. EP” marked a special achievement for the budding band, it was somewhat rushed and Meade Ave. felt the need to get back to the studio quickly to produce a collection of songs that reflected more of their passion while also furthering the sound that was taking shape due to the trio’s wide assortment of influences.

Ionosphere Gets Released into the Las Vegas Music Scene

With the release of “Ionosphere,” the members of Meade Ave. have showcased their versatility, while also forming a sound and concept that is decisively theirs. The EP opens with the no-nonsense, straight-rock-fueled “Portal,” and seamlessly transitions to the beautifully layered, haunting “Crimson” with ease. “Ionosphere” is currently available on iTunes, Amazon, Spotify and more.

The immediate plans for this new addition to the Las Vegas rock band (http://www.myppk.com/PPKs/indexC.aspx?PPK=13502) lineup is to continue playing shows and making the most out of their fortunate placement in the loyal Vegas community.
