Aviva Maloney Biography:

Reeds, keyboards, vocals. Based in Los Angeles, Aviva is the band’s only female member and “the first girl Monkee,” handling saxophone, flute, keyboards, and vocals. She plays Sax Gourmet instruments exclusively.

Following shows with Peter Tork in the early 90s, Aviva joined The Monkees and Davy Jones and has recorded and toured with them ever since. She toured on the 1996-97 Monkees 30th Anniversary Tour, 2001 Monkees Tour, and currently the 45th Anniversary World Tour.  She has performed around the world and formerly worked with Big Brother and the Holding Company and (Jefferson Starship spinoffs) Marty Balin(“Miracles”) and Craig Chaquico. In 1998, she released a critically acclaimed solo album, Reed My Mind. The music is in the Smooth Jazz format and features (what critics call) “her soulful and rhythmic sax sound that is uniquely hers.” She is joined on the album by a group of friends including Wayne Avers (Monkees, Micky Dolenz), Gary Brown (Steve Winwood Band), Loralee Christensen and Melisa Kary (Starship), David Jenkins (Pablo Cruise), Robin Sylvester (Ratdog), and producer Kincaid Miller (Marty Balin, Pablo Cruise, The Monkees). The song “Secret Love” continues to get airplay and was written by Alex Call (songwriter for Huey Lewis and the News, Tommy Tutone).

Aviva has also appeared on The Tonight Show, The Today Show, The CBS Morning Show, Regis & Kelly, Access Hollywood, and Miss Teen U.S.A..
