Boyce Avenue is a band from Sarasota, Florida, United States. They play pop rock music. The band is made up of three brothers: Alejandro, Fabian, and Daniel Manzano. They started making music together in 2004. The group chose the name Boyce Avenue because it combines the names of two streets they grew up on. Boyce Avenue often performs concerts in many parts of the world, including Asia, Australia, Europe, North America, and South America.
Becoming Famous on YouTube
In 2007, Boyce Avenue decided to share their music on YouTube. Since then, they have filmed themselves playing many songs. They play their own songs and also cover popular songs by artists like Rihanna, Coldplay, Lifehouse, and Bruno Mars. They sometimes invite other new artists, like Hannah Trigwell, to sing with them.
Most of the songs they play are acoustic. This means they use instruments that don't need electricity to make sound, like acoustic guitars.
The Band Members and Their Music
Alejandro is the lead singer of the band. He also plays the guitar and the piano. His brother Fabian plays the guitar too. The oldest brother, Daniel, plays the percussion instruments, like drums. Sometimes, he also plays the bass guitar.
Boyce Avenue had their first big concert in New York City in January 2009. All the tickets for this show were sold out! After this success, they decided to have more concerts all around the world.
Their Albums
Boyce Avenue has released several albums. They have two albums that feature only their own original songs. The first one is called All You're Meant To Be, which came out in 2008. Their second album with original songs is All We Have Left, released in 2010. The brothers wrote and produced all the songs on these albums themselves. "Every Breath" was the first single from All We Have Left, and it also has a music video.
Besides their original albums, the group has five other albums. These albums are filled with cover songs, which are their versions of songs by many different artists.
