PARIS new album

]AVENUE OF ALLIES HEAD TO PARIS:

The third Avenue Of Allies release for April 12 can now be revealed. It is the debut album for French AOR outfit Paris titled Only One Life.
The Melodic Rock outfit Paris has
its origins in the French capital, but a short look at the album credits
of the band's debut record illustrates that we are actually dealing
with an international affair. The two main characters, Fr�d�ric Dechavanne and S�bastien Montet,
hail from France, the duo is responsible for the songwriting, the lead
vocals, the guitars and the keyboards. The Italian delegation is
represented by producer Alessandro Del Vecchio (Lionville, Hardline, Issa), the rhythm section Anna Portalupi (Mitch Malloy, Lionville, Hardline) on bass and Alessandro Mori (Mitch Malloy, Lionville, Axe) on drums. Guests are in-demand Swedish songwriter Robert S�ll (Work Of Art, W.E.T.) on guitar and Steve Newman (Newman, Big Life) from the United Kingdom on backing vocals.

Fr�d�ric and S�bastien grew up in the suburbs of Paris. They were
already long-time friends when they discovered their common interest in
AOR and Melodic Rock in the mid 80s. During their days in High School in
the late 80s they attend countless concerts of bands like Def Leppard
and Bon Jovi and they founded their first band and instantly started
writing their own songs, inspired by some of the most successful acts of
the Melodic Rock genre. Until 2003 they kept on working on their own
material, but life had other plans for the guys and their songwriting
activities were put on hold.
In 2010 the two friends, who always kept in touch through the years,
rediscovered the joy of making music together. New technologies paved
the way for their revitalized musical collaboration with Fr�d�ric now
living in Germany, and they eventually recorded a demo album with 11
newly songs in 2011.

Ready then to take the next step, they contacted Alessandro Del Vecchio.
The internationally renowned producer and musician took them under his
wings and produced the songs in his studio, including some old favorites
Fr�d�ric and S�bastien had written 20 years ago. The Paris debut "Only One Life"
was recorded with the help of an international line-up of studio
musicians, resulting in a collection of truly catchy Melodic Rock tunes.

What the international press says about Only One Life:
“The songs invoke all sorts of aural responses which reads like an
AOR cookbook. Reference points include Journey, Ransom, Blanc Faces,
Work Of Art and Toto to my ears.” (George Thatcher, GloryDazeMusic, Australia)
“The album features a solid tracklist epitomizing the AOR genre…”Only
One Life” is a very promising debut release from Paris” (Brent Rusche,
Fireworks, UK)
The album delivers very catchy Melodic Rock in the vein of Newman albums like “Heaven Knows” and “Dance In The Fire”. (AOR Heaven, Germany)
“Paris main men Frédéric Dechavanne & Sébastien Montet have
crafted some solid tunes especially "South of Love" and "Every Time You
Walk Away" which evoke memories of a different time and place i.e. the
1980s” (Simon Bray, Sea Of Tranquility, USA)
“The songs will remind you of the usual suspects from the Melodic
Rock/AOR genre, like Survivor Toto, Bon Jovi, Blanc Faces, Philip
Bardowell , but also Don Henley and 38 Special (while Max Carl was in
their line-up)“. (Daniel Daus, Rocktimes, Germany)
“All in all a creditable debut that will make France more visible on the map of AOR” (Maarten van Mameren, Aardshok, The Netherlands)
“Lovers of 80s based AOR, Westcoast and Melodic Rock will lick their
lips or better said their tender ears in anticipation for this new
project from France” (Rock Meeting, France)
“It sounds of classic AOR with the catchy choruses, the melodic
verses, the keys and all of that…. This album rocks, that is one thing
you can say about it.” (Daniel Källmalm, Hallowed, Sweden)
“What we have here is a collection of truly catchy melodic rock tunes
... Summing this album up I would say if the two friends can come up
with another batch of songs this good… the future for Frédéric and
Sébastien will take them higher than the Eiffel Tower!” (Dave Prince, Überröck, UK)
