Their high-energy shows have captivated audiences around the globe, making this eclectic group a must-see at venues and festivals alike.

In 2021, Southern Avenueโs released their third full-length LP, Be The Love You Want (Renew Records/BMG). Produced by Multi-GRAMMYยฎ winner Steve Berlin (Los Lobos, Susan Tedeschi, Deer Tick), American Songwriter called it โA potent soul force!โ and No Depression proclaimed itโs โone of the most listenable, and danceable, records of the year.โ

On November 11, 2022, Southern Avenue released their latest single, a funky reinterpretation of the 1983 Genesis hit, โThatโs All.โ Their version gives a soulful spin to the classic track taking an already groovy pop-rock song, and translating it into an electrifying banger driven by luscious vocal harmonies and vintage organ and guitar tones. The song is now available worldwide via Color Red Music.
