ADDICTION:
ADDICTION is five musicians that came together because of their love & passion for 80’s Rock!
The 1980’s were an amazing time in Rock music when lead vocalists were known for their exceptional range & vocal power and great harmonies were mandatory. Phenomenal lead guitar solos, by players like Eddie Van Halen, Randy Rhoads, George Lynch & Slash, set the bar high! Rhythm sections were driven by double bass & adrenaline. Over 60% of rock radio play, concert venues & festivals still support this lasting genre of music. From new, young listeners to the faithful Metal Heads there is always a demand for high energy rock n roll. ADDICTION plays these songs as true to original form as possible with the same energy level & excitement as when the songs were released.
