Purdue Avenue

Purdue Avenue, formed in late December of 2008, is an alternative SoCal rock band based in LA whose music contains the raw energy of a young Weezer and Sublime. The band was first noticed by - and asked to open for - Moshav, an accomplished LA rock band that has been touring the world for over 10 years. After their impressive first gig, Purdue Avenue got such rave reviews that the talented ensemble of young musicians decided to record their debut EP. Each song is catchier than the next and even a first time listener finds himself singing along immediately. With emotional, earnest lyrics that are both sung, and sometimes rapped, by Cobe Schwartz and tasteful, solid guitar playing and tenor backup vocals by Shmush Schwartz (yes, brothers), and melodic bass lines by Mendy Shallman, the band is as tight as their relationship. And as for their drummer Michael Johnson, well, he's Michael Johnson.
