Having already made a name for themselves via ecstatic live performances up and down the West Coast, the time has come for “DIRTY SEXY KNIGHTS IN PARIS,” the electrifying Atlantic Records debut from AUDIOVENT. The Calabasas, California-based quartet has been making music together for nearly a decade and their tight interpersonal bond is reflected in their multi-faceted, intensely textured sound. Inspired by an eclectic variety of old-school rock and soul, AUDIOVENT have dedicated themselves to the art of songwriting and sonic experimentation. Tracks like the album-opening “The Energy” and the hypnotic “Rain” boast a passionate melodic thrust and an inventive rhythmic approach which points to the band’s goal of guiding the music they love towards the new era.
“We want to help to bring the rock ‘n’ roll back,” singer Jason Boyd enthuses. “We look at old footage of Jimi Hendrix and Led Zeppelin and the Who, and that’s really what gets us going. We want music to be like that again.”
