A long time ago, in a So Cal city far, far away...well not a long time ago or far away butVale of Avalon was born. Vale of Avalon is from Fullerton and started in 2009.
Two siblings by the name of Richi (vocals) & Michelle Molina (vocals/guitars) were devoted to making their own band. Vale of Avalon started on one random day in September 29, 2009 in the parking lot of a Walmart. Three kids met each other that day while waiting in a Paramore Meet & Greet line. Michelle had camped out to be one of the first in line and was awoken very early in the morning to the sound of strumming. It was none other than Sam Torres (guitars). They spent the rest of the day entertaining the crowd with cover songs and Richi met up with them later & they decided a month later to start a band together.
When starting the band, Vale of Avalon wanted to do something that not many people have done before in the music scene. By mixing screamo/post-hardcore with indie and alternative instrumentals and sounds. Within two years of being a band, they never would of dreamed opening up for bands that inspired them like Falling In Reverse, Oh, Sleeper, Eyes Set To Kill, Aiden, Arms Like Yours, New Years Day, and many more.
This year, the group also embarked on their first tour. They joined in on the Lies & Deception Tour with Aura & Vanity in support of Love On The Lips Of A Whore. Due to their drummer's injury at work before the tour, they brought a different sound by being an acoustic three piece during an all deathcore and metalcore tour. Sadly also this year the band has announced their breakup.
