After five incredible years, our compadre Jeff has decided to leave ARoad. Jeff has decided it is time for him to step away from the band and pursue the next chapter in his life. We are so sad to see him go, but excited for this next stage in his life. In fact, Jeff is going to be hitting the books again to finish up his college degree that he started several years ago. Lets hope that “freshman 15″ isn’t too hard on him! All joking aside, we will truly miss Jeff as a member of Addison Road.
But with endings comes new beginnings, so today we are starting “The Great Big Addison Road On-Line YouTube Drummer Search of 2010″ We need your help to find the next drummer of Addison Road! Details can be found below. Happy drumming!
Step 1: Record a 5 minute video.

Taking time out of my day to watch the auditions, there was one guy that standed out to me the most. This person played with excitement, had a few tricks up his sleeve, but most of all was fun to watch. He got into the music, his video was very professional and you could tell he was having fun making his audition. Fred Fischer is one of the most funniest person I’ve ever met. His lizard imitation cracked me up. I would highly reccomend Fred Fischer to play for Addison Road. Anyone who has worked the landscaping business is a hard worker. Not only does Fred play for his church, but his heart is in christian music. My vote is for Fred Fischer.
Just finished up and uploaded my video a few minutes ago! I think this is really great what you guys are doing and I will continue praying for you all as you are in search of finding the right person for the group. Thanks for all you guys do!

Will be posting my cut on the song in two days! Just was informed about the search today, and feel moved by God to send in what God’s doing with me on the set. I’ve played for fourteen years and would love to keep the beat and be another girl on the Addison road crew
Excited to worship our Creator,

Hey, i just put my audition video on Youtube. I had fun doing this video and i am excited for you guys on this journey to find Addison Road’s new drummer.
I’ve been praying for you all. God bless.
My word of getting the video in within two days has been slightly broken due to slow internet speed, but God willing, will have the video posted in the morning.

The audition is officially up
Thanks for letting me have some focused fun for the last few days!! I’ll be praying for your search as you look for the right person to take a step of faith in 
Hello. I am taking my old interview out of my video and I am putting a new interveiw in. The first one was to dark and you couldn’t see me; the new one is clearer and you can see me. I am deeply sorry for the trouble. It will up tonight. Sorry again. Thanks for your time.
One final thing I forgot to note, I also can sing and provide vocal harmonies while drumming. Let me know if you would like any demo’s. My vocal style is comparable to Jennifer Knapp and Patsy Cline. Just thought I would throw one final interesting thing about myself your way
Thanks for the opportunity guys. I hope you enjoy watching my video as much as i enjoyed making it. It was a great experience and I thank you guys for that. God bless.
I will be trying out. I can sing an write music also. My home church told me to audition. United Christian church. I can tell it will be hard to beat.
Alrighty, looks like I’ve done everything for the audition. This comment is the last thing to do, I think.
Hy guys. I’m Coty Watson. I am at this moment uploading my try-out video for the drummer search, so it should be up soon. i beg you guys to please consider me. I understand if you find someone that is amazing, then by all means, grab them lol! but i really need this. I am a soon to be husband and my fiance wants this for me bad! I am prayin for the chance to give you guys a “in person” try-out, but if it is God’s will that i’m not your drummer, then it is to be. the video makes me seem like i get off beat but i promise you i’m not lol! it’s the best i could do. and as you see i do not have an amazing set. but i do what i can. i beg you guys to please keep me in your hearts, and consideration. My cell number is (256)221-8712. To the best of thanks.

You are all in our thoughts and prayers. I hope that you are able to recover quickly from the fire. Just keep the failth and know that God will provide. I also wanted to leave a comment that I uploaded a video to your Youtube Group. Thanks for doing this. Even if I am not the right drummer, it sure has been a blessing to see all the other auditions and get to record with some other believers.
Wow!! I have seen some bad things happen to good people and whatever happens God will always provide. No more is that apparent in what you guys have gone through.
Praise God for who he is and what he has and will do through Addison Road.
Hi AR, I posted my audition tonight, but the group said I have insufficient permissions. I put the link in the website box…Thanks for your time! Evan
My vote is Jason Hatchett (Hatch). I know him as a friend, as a father and as a man with a heart for God. I am praying for God’s will through this search. Keep inspired by the Holy Spirit and even this rv fire will be fuel for a new song!
