Learn moreAlong Comes the Association is the story of how Russ Giguere and his fellow band members in the legendary and influential pop group The Association came together to create unparalleled music, unique to the time and place, and never again to be repeated. Yes, there were drugs, and there were women, such as the lovely Linda Ronstadt and Helen Mirren, but it was the Sixties, after all. In listening to Along Comes the Association, you are transported back in time to post–1963 America. Go on, try to resist the urge to roll one while floating on the musical cloud of melodic rock that Russ Giguere and his band of melodic troubadours popularized and that we still cherish to this day . . .
Russ Giguere joined The Association, singing and playing rhythm guitar, serving as an integral part of their distinctive, mellifluous sound, riding to the top of the music charts and traveling across the country and abroad, opening some of the biggest venues in the US to some of the very first sounds of rock and roll, including the legendary June 16th, 1967 concert at the Monterey International Pop Festival. To this day, The Association still plays thirty to forty concerts per year to packed houses throughout the United States.
