Biography

Hazen Street includes vocalist Toby Morse (H20), vocalist Freddy Cricien, bassist Hoya (Madball), guitarist David Kennedy, and drummer Mackie (Fun Lovin' Criminals). Borne out of an original collaboration between Morse and Kennedy and named for the address of the N.Y.C. prison in which ex-Madball vocalist Cricien did a stint, the band mixed hard-hitting contemporary hardcore with metal, rap-rock, and pop overtones. Hazen Street signed with Benji and Joel Madden's Epic-distributed DC Flag imprint in 2003 and set to work on their debut with producer Howard Benson. Guitarist Chad Gilbert of New Found Glory also performed on the record, but commitments to NFG kept him from touring in support with Hazen Street. The self-titled effort was then issued in July 2004. ~ Johnny Loftus, All Music Guide

Hazen Street (also known as Hazen St.) was a hardcore punk supergroup that formed in early 2004.

The band features Freddy Cricien and Hoya of New York hardcore band Madball; Toby Morse of melodic hardcore band H2O; David Kennedy of post hardcore band Box Car Racer, Over My Dead Body, and later Angels & Airwaves; and Mackie of The Cro-Mags & the Bad Brains. Chad Gilbert of Shai Hulud and later New Found Glory co-wrote and helped record every song on the album, but he was soon dismissed from Hazen Street by New Found Glory's record label due to a contract dispute. He was replaced by Mitts of Madball.

Band history

Hazen Street released their self-titled debut album, Hazen Street on Epic Records

On August 31 2005, the band posted an update on their website, reporting that they would begin to work on a new record at the end of 2005, label to be announced. However, there has been no website updates since then, and nothing has been heard regarding this new album, presumably due to Kennedy's full-time involvement with Angels & Airwaves.

In November 2006, it was announced that their song "Are You Ready?" would be the official theme song for WWE Survivor Series 2006, the twentieth annual Survival Series pay-per-view. The event took place at the Wachovia Center in Philadelphia on November 26, 2006.

Hazen Street reunited for a one-off performance on June 21, 2009, supporting H2O in a show in New York City.[1]
