Originally formed in Auckland, New Zealand from the ashes of the band All Else Fails, Addison also quickly created a buzz around their later base, Melbourne Australia.
Forming in late 2007 they came together to create music that aims to surpass expectation and deliver an energetic performance. With a wide range of influence, the five friends performed with intensity, passion and wholehearted conviction.

With the release of their debut EP, ''To the Ends of the Earth'', under their belts Addison turned heads across Australia and New Zealand. They continued to play shows through both countries buolding an immense a loyal following. However, callings to different paths led the band to break up, playing their final show at Parachute Music Festival, late January 2010. The band have recorded a new full-length which is due for a Feb/March 2010 release.
