Translation, courtesy of Michael van Coevorden:

The American band Venice consists of cousins Kipp and Michael Lennon and
their brothers Pat and Mark Lennon (by the way, no relation to John).  The music this
quartet makes is in the same tradition as Crosby, Stills & Nash and The
Eagles.  When their title-less debut album from 1990 did next to nothing,
Venice's activities were given low priority and the Lennons concentrated mainly
on sessionwork.  In that capacity, they've worked together with such greats as Phil
Collins, Jackson Browne, Bruce Springsteen, Michael Jackson and Bon Jovi.  In
1997, their long awaited second album was released, called "Born and Raised."
The glowing (translated very literally) album is full of semi-acoustic
folk-rock and harmonies.  Thanks to a sublime 2 Meter Sessie, the Netherlands
were also introduced to the skills of the Lennon brothers (and cousins,
of course).  Although unmistakingly Venice, the new album called "Spin Art"
reveals a more raw guitar sound.
