If something good comes out of it, we’ll make the best of it. It’s great to be back home, doing what I love to do with an amazing band.
CLEVELAND – Scott Savol remembers his time on American Idol fondly and is grateful for the experience. “I was always kind of a quiet person,” Scott told Bill Martin. “I did have a lot of belief of myself but once I got out there and saw that most people find something that they’re good at, that people accept and people enjoy, I found that with idol.” Scott landed in the Top 5 on season 4, the same year as Carrie Underwood. Now, he works for a local cable provider while he sings with his band ‘Avenue’ in his free time. He said although stardom hasn’t hit, he doesn’t think he’s failed. ”I had to suck up the fact that age doesn’t matter. It’s just whenever something happened you know. If something good comes out of it, we’ll make the best of it.”

Scott Savol, who gained fame while competing on the fourth season of American Idol, is the new lead male vocalist for “The Avenue,” an exclusive Cleveland Music Group band. Savol, a Cleveland native, finished fifth behind winner Carrie Underwood in 2005. Now The Avenue, which is fronted by three lead singers, is the only Cleveland area band featuring two American Idol finalists. Tiffany Marchak was a semi-finalist in season two, making the Hollywood round. She is a founding member of the band, which began at Jerry Bruno Productions in 2006.
While competing on American Idol, Savol’s raw talent and soulful voice won him enough votes each week to get him into the Top 5, as viewers continually responded favorably to his down-to-earth demeanor and spiritual attitude. Savol’s performing experience was limited to choir at Shaker Heights High School, festivals and church shows prior to endearing himself to American Idol’s worldwide audience.
“It’s great to be back home, doing what I love to do with an amazing band,” said Savol. “It’s such a blessing, not to mention that ‘The Avenue’ helps bring fun and joy to the happiest day of anybody’s life, their wedding day.” New video will be produced soon.
