Avril Lavigne Biography
Wild child Avril Lavigne hit big in summer 2002 with her
spiky-fun debut song, Complicated, shifting pop music into a
different direction. Lavigne, who was 17 at the time, didn't seem
concerned with the glamour of the TRL-dominated pop world and such
confidence allowed her star power to soar. The middle of three children
in small-town Napanee, Ontario, Lavigne's rock ambitions were
noticeable around age two. By her early teens, she was already writing
songs and playing guitar. The church choir, local festivals, and county
fairs also allowed Lavigne to get her voice heard, and luckily, Arista
Records main man Antonio L.A. Reid was listening. He offered her a
deal, and at 16, Lavigne's musical dreams became reality. With Reid's
assistance and a new Manhattan apartment, Lavigne found herself
surrounded by prime songwriters and producers, but it wasn't impressive
enough for her to continue. She had always relied on her own ideas to
create a musical spark, and things weren't going as planned. Lavigne
wasn't disillusioned, though. She headed for Los Angeles and Nettwerk
grabbed her. Producer/songwriter Clif Magness (Celine Dion, Wilson
Phillips, Sheena Easton) tweaked Lavigne's melodic, edgy sound and her
debut, Let Go, was the polished product. Singles such as Complicated
and Sk8er Boi hit the Top Ten while I'm with You and Losing Grip
did moderately well at radio. Butch Walker of the Marvelous 3, Our Lady
Peace frontman Raine Maida, and Don Gilmore (Linkin Park, Good
Charlotte) signed on to produce Lavigne's second album, Under My Skin,
which appeared in May 2004. The album topped the Billboard charts and
produced the number one hit My Happy Ending. Other singles like
Nobody's Home and Fall to Pieces did respectably well also.
Settling down a bit from her punk rock wild child persona, Lavigne
married her boyfriend of two years, Sum 41 frontman Deryck Whibley, in
July 2006.
Although she spent some time dabbling with a film career - lending a
voice to the 2006 animated film Over The Headge and appearing in
Richard Linklater's fictional adaptation of Fast Food Nation that same
year - Lavigne spent most of '06 working on her third album, The Best
Damn Thing which was released in April of 2007. It marked a return to
the bratty, spunky punk-pop of Let Go, best heard on the album's first
single, the chart-topping “Girlfriend” (which later became the subject
of controversy as the '70s power-pop band The Rubinoos sued Lavigne
claiming that her tune reworked their '79 song, “I Wanna Be Your
Boyfriend.”). The Best Damn Thing debuted at number one on the
Billboard charts upon the week of its release. ~ MacKenzie Wilson, All
