""the best vocal group in the country"...David Crosby. Acoustic Rock with 4 Part Harmony

notes

Venice

Venice is a band comprised of two sets of brothers, Michael and Mark Lennon and Pat and Kipp Lennon. They are cousins who were born and raised in Venice Beach, California and they have been a staple on the California Club scene for years. They are known for their incredible 4 part harmonies and live shows. David Crosby has hailed Venice as...
"the best vocal group in the country".

Venice has toured or recorded with the following artists:
Jackson Browne, David Crosby, Stevie Nicks, Warren Zevon, Phil Collins, Sting and Cher, just to name a few.

In these days of lipsyncing and commercial manufacturing of artist and music, Venice is a breath of fresh air. Writing songs and performing live is what they do best. Just watch their live DVD, "Venice, Live at the Royal Carre Theater" and you'll see how real this band is.

They recently returned from a sold out tour in Europe and they plan on focusing their attention on the U.S. in 2006. The Southern California sound is back with a new face and a new but familiar sound.

  • Great, rockin" sound!!
    author: debbie wilson

    Until you've heard these guys live, you can;t fully appreciate theri talent! I saw them in Lake Arrowhead, CA this summer 2007 and they blew me away!! Bought a few of their CDs and I ma hooked. Best live band around. Check them out!

  • top quality!
    author: Mr J. Gearing

    This album may be titled 'garage demos' but the quality is superb. Great versions of Circus in Town & World upon my back. Recomended to everyone (along with all their other officially released cd's).

  • What Are You Waiting For???
    author: Robert J. Spear

    This album is said to be a demos recorded, in some cases, only a week after the songs were written. If there are any rough edges, believe me, they don't show much. This album is heavy with great singing, great playing, and really great material. When it is in my player, I can't stop listening to it. In my humble opinion, the songs on this album are better by far than any of the suppressed, down-tempo stuff on Venice's other albums. Guys, it's been ten years. Do another one. What are you waiting for?

  • nice..clean..powerful
    author: socalguy

    This material is another side of the guys. The talent of the whole band. I heard them live a number of years back in the O.C. playing soft and then this is what makes them so good. Faster paced sounds with a punch. Nice

  • absolute pleasure
    author: Kees

    It is great pleasure listening, and what joy it must have been recording it

  • Absolutly Fabulous!!!!!
    author: Little Lizard

    I am SO glad to finally find more music by Venice. I got thier first CD in 1991 and played it to death....Then found Born and Raised in 1997, Six long years, now NINE more years later I have found my all time favorite music... I am SO glad you guys have stuck with it, you have only grown in style and sound but still maintain that special sound of yours, THANK YOU!!! D~L

  • Great Songs!!
    author: Frank Fuhler "Holland"

    Venice Garage Demos Fast Stuff, Really is a Fantastic CD, in every song there's so much power and passion in it!! Love the cd

  • Powerful songs with beautiful harmonies
    author: Taisuke

    I'm a VENICE fan since they released "Born and Raised" in 1997. I've listened to all their CD's. Now I'm sure that Garage Demos Part1•2 are their best! These will be my favorites all the time.

  • Good, hard-rockin' harmony music
    author: Jon DeLong

    Don't let the name of this CD put you off. These are not recorded on low end equipment in some garage. These are all very professional recordings. I highly recommend both the Fast & Slow CDs.

  • My favorite CD from the best undiscovered band!
    author: April (from Los Angeles)

    THE WATER was the first song I ever heard from the band Venice and I loved it from day one! I love every album they've made since, but Garage Demos Part 2 (Fast Stuff) will always be my favorite because its how I discovered this amazing band. All the songs on this CD are high energy but the best songs are the LIVE performances! Definitely buy this album because you wont be sorry!

  • Great cruisin' music! Love that haromony!!
    author: Kristina Valera

    These classic versions of Circus in Town, If I were You, Time on My Hands, and World Upon my back are excellent. They remind me of why I fell in love with this band. You just dont get harmony like this anywhere but Venice. Garage Demos Part 1 and Part 2 are essential to any Venice collection.
