Melrose Avenue, a band of punk rock misfits bred among the ashes of a post covid Australia, The cross-state dark love story that was literally given no other option than to blossom online or drown in the tidal wave of acts desperately seeking validation for the art they could no longer share from the comfort of a mid city dive bar stage.

And blossom they did, A collective of 2.2 million tiktok and 1.5 million instagram followers will testify to that, embracing what so many artists cannot, and becoming the 8th most viewed music act on tiktok (Australia / New Zealand) in 2023 with an audience that spans more than 60 countries naming USA, Germany, The UK and Australia in their top 4.

Taking influence from heavy rock / Metalcore heavyweights Bring Me The Horizon, Memphis May fire and Lincoln Park, Melrose Avenue are what a betting man would call a sure thing! But it's not just the audience size that makes Melrose Avenue the most exciting heavy music proposition of 2025, it is the sheer talent and charisma that radiates from every essence of this band both together and individually making Melrose Avenue an undeniable future success story.

Led by 24 year old, vocal powerhouse and songwriter Viado Saric, Melrose Avenue is a band of accomplished musicians the band driven by the hook ridden shred style of the literal beast that is guitarist Mitchell Black, the overwhelming charisma and unprecedented drumming styles of drummer and '2023 Bachelor Australia' Jed Mcintosh and finally the subtle and humble makings of the man that brings it all together, the glue of Melrose Avenue, guitarist/backing vocalist Shawn 'Red Curl' Mayer.

Announcing their signing to LA based Punk Rock staple label 'Hopeless Records' in October 2024, Melose Avenue released their debut ep The Fool & The Beggar with the title single immediately added to Octane and ep streams racing up above 10 million global streams.
