Lion Music is pleased to announce the signing of Acacia Avenue for their self titled debut album set for release on Lion Music in January 2010.

Led by Danish guitarist and songwriter Torben Enevoldsen (Section A, Fatal Force) the initial idea for the album came about from Torben writing in a more melodic hard rock nature than his other bands. Quickly the idea emerged to do a whole album in this style but to spice things up Torben called in a few good friends to participate as singers and co-writers.



Tony Mills (TNT, Shy) was the first to join in and together they wrote and recorded "Don?t Call Me Tonight" and "Wait No More." Geir R?nning (Radioactive, Prisoner) began writing with Torben immediately after and together they penned the songs "Hold On," "No Looking Back" and "Digging." Enevoldsen wrote the rest of the songs by himself, but Torben Lysholm (Pangea, Mysterell) wrote the lyrics for "Just Wanna Be With You" and sang vocals on "Can?t Make You Stay" and the Japanese bonus track "Cold." Finally Lars S?fsund (W.O.A.) performed the vocals on "An Illusion."

Apart from playing all guitars, bass and keyboards on the album, Torben Enevoldsen sang backing vocals on a few songs and also did the lead vocals on "Jamie's In Love" and "Let Go." Thomas Heintzelmann (Section A, Decoy) played drums and Carsten Neumann (Savage Affair) helped out with the bass.

Acacia Avenue is sure to please fans of strong hard melodic rock with each track being home to catchy vocal melodies, strong instrumentation and a crisp clean production.

Full information to follow soon.
