    Included on that album is Avis’s new single, “Early Afternoon Love.” Says Avis: "Watching the process of writers and producers like Freddie Perrin and Fonce Mizell who wrote for the Jacksons as well as our group inspired me.  One of my favorite topics is romance.  Love doesn’t always have to happen in the midnight hour.  So I wrote and produced what “Early Afternoon Love” feels like under stars, the sun and the moon!”
