You want to know the way Farewell Fighter learned?

In 2011, after being listed as Alternative Press Magazine’s top un-signed bands of 2010, Farewell Fighter let go of the comfy, material life to hit the road.

Spending 12 months playing 150+ shows in 40+ states and selling over 5,500 copies of their album during the summer months, I would say Farewell Fighter figured out how to survive and prosper quickly…and very well.

Did I mention they self-funded and self-booked the entire tour?

I have now.

Farewell Fighter is a pop punk powerhouse from Nashville which includes Kenny Fleetwood on vocals and guitar, Matthew Hooper on drums, Lee Morton on guitar, and David Jahns on bass.

To not only survive on your own on the road but also build a loyal following AND make sales is a true testament to the talent, skill, and creativity of this group of individuals.

These fellas form a cohesive wall of sound that stands on par with more established acts such as Hellogoodbye, The Early November, or We Are In The Crowd. Farewell Fighter has also performed with these bands!

Fleetwood layers each track with his commanding vocals and clever, well-written lyrics. The musicianship backing him propels the group way above your average do-it-yourself band.

You can check out our interview with the guys from MTSU’s Can Jam 2012.

I suggest you grab a copy of The Way We Learn…

Then connect with the band on Facebook or Twitter. You can also visit their website.
