Love Love Love

Avalanche City

unsigned/ Let The People Speak

WE SAY

Avalanche City have had huge domestic success in New Zealand recently with this track. The Auckland band, the project of singer Dave Baxter, had the fastest-selling single to debut at No1 in NZ. The video continues to spread online, passing 300k YouTube views. They originally released their debut album, Our New Life Above The Ground, for free on Facebook last October to test the waters and it was downloaded by 11,000 people in four months. Love Love Love has hit No1 at radio and has become a TV hit after being used on a national campaign for TVNZ. International interest continues to grow in the band, with even more activity after this week's Musexpo conference and showcase in LA, and we believe a label deal is close. Another homegrown success from New Zealand with an utterly infectious song that should make an impact on the world stage.
