About Five For Fighting

Fall is a great time to update your personal playlist and the new Five For Fighting album should definitely grab a spot on your list.

Singer/songwriter John Ondrasik has spent the past decade writing deeply personal songs that include social messages, invoke the human spirit and make an emotional connection. This can be heard on the past five albums by Five For Fighting, the band name under which he records and performs.  Now John delivers a new album, Slice, featuring the song “Chances”, which came out October 13th.

Five For Fighting’s breakthrough came in 2001 with the Grammy Nominated song “Superman”, from the Platinum certified “America Town”.  The song was climbing the charts upon release, and when 9/11 happened, it became a song of healing for the nation.  FFF performed the song at the post 9/11 fundraiser The Concert for New York which paid tribute to all the firefighters, police officers & paramedics affected by the events of 9/11.

ROAD TRIPPING

John will be hitting the road in October with An Acoustic Evening with Five For Fighting. The songs are great on record, even better live! Definitely a show worth seeing! To find out about how to get tickets in a market near you, go to http://www.fiveforfighting.com/.

TWO THUMBS UP!

I’m a Five For Fighting fan so I was excited when One to One offered me this review! As soon as I downloaded the album I added it to my playlist and started listening. Usually when I get a CD there will be a song or two I like on it and the rest I skip through, but that was not the case with Slice! It played start to finish, and I let it start again. Then, it was still playing when the kids came home from school and every one of them asked me to put it on their mp3 player. I love finding music that we both enjoy! As always, John Ondrasik – Five For Fighting does not dissapoint!
