在2006年Fireflight全美發(fā)行《The Healing of Harms》專輯之前，曾經(jīng)自己發(fā)行過一張專輯及一張EP。這支樂隊(duì)曾經(jīng)多年巡演，被喻為“永不疲憊的馬路戰(zhàn)士”。他們都是直率的搖滾人，這支來自陽光之州佛羅里達(dá)的樂隊(duì)在現(xiàn)場(chǎng)表演中不乏剛硬力作。吉他手Justin Cox說：“我們的音樂盡可能的重，但并不是金屬”。樂隊(duì)創(chuàng)作的自然旋律令《The Healing of Harms》登上了Christian rock榜單的 No.1，其中“等待”和“你決定”還成為榜單前10名的歌曲。這支當(dāng)初由鼓手Phee Shorb牽頭組成的樂隊(duì)，巧妙地利用在巡回演出中積累的經(jīng)驗(yàn)為《The Healing of Harms》注入活力，而新發(fā)行的《Unbreakable》也是他們?cè)诼眯新分胁潘既慷鴮懗傻摹?

The female-fronted band's style of rock is fairly heavy, bordering on metal, and is reminiscent of other popular female-fronted rock bands of the time, such as Paramore and Evanescence. The band is based in Orlando, FL, and tours the United States extensively, reportedly performing an estimated 140 shows per year. Founded in Eustis, FL, in 1999, Fireflight are comprised of Dawn Richardson (vocals), Justin Cox (guitar), Glenn Drennen (guitar), Wendy Drennen (bass), and Phee Shorb (drums). The band independently recorded and released its debut album, Glam-Rok (2002), produced by guitarist Justin Cox. The five-track EP On the Subject of Moving Forward followed in 2004, leading to a recording contract offer from Flicker Records. The band's first Flicker release, The Healing of Harms (2006), was produced by Skidd Mills and became a major hit in the Christian rock community, reaching number 37 on the Billboard Top Christian Albums chart. The album spawned a pair of Christian rock radio hit singles, "You Decide" and "Waiting," the latter of which reached number 27 on the Billboard Hot Christian Songs chart. The band's second Flicker release, Unbreakable (2008), proved even more popular. Produced by Rob Hawkins, it reached number 15 on the Billboard Top Christian Albums chart and spawned another big Christian rock radio hit in the title track. Promoted via the Bionic Woman television series, "Unbreakable" peaked at number 20 on the Billboard Hot Christian Songs chart. 更多>>
