Boyce Avenue, Ingrid Michaelson, Tyler Hilton

Boyce Avenue, a Florida-based band popular for its strong acoustic roots and melodic rock sound, consists of the three brothers. The brothers first came together as a band in 2004 when Alejandro (lead vocals, guitar, piano), Fabian (guitar, vocals), and their older brother Daniel (bass, percussion, vocals) reconnected after pursuing their respective educational goals. It was in Florida, where two of the brothers had been studying, that they began to write music and to perform local shows, and took their most formative steps toward becoming a band. In 2007, in an effort to share their music and ideas with the world, the band decided to start filming and posting videos of their own songs on YouTube, as well as some of their favourites by other artists. Some of the first few videos they posted included acoustic versions of songs such as Justin Timberlake's LoveStoned, Rihanna's Umbrella and Coldplay's Viva La Vida. The videos began to resonate instantly with YouTube viewers. Over the course of 2007 and 2008, the band amassed millions of views and over 100,000 subscribers to their YouTube channel. To date, the band has accumulated over 165,000,000 views on YouTube, with the total number of subscribers approaching 300,000, making their channel one of the most frequented worldwide on YouTube. Believing firmly in the strength of their online fans, the band booked a stand-alone show in New York City in January of 2009, for their first ever performance in the city. Surprising label and industry folks alike, the show perceived by others as a gamble, was an enormous sell-out success. Since then, the band has been steadily touring the world over with similar results.
