Artist History The Front Porch Country Band's beginning was literally an explosion of sound. One night last summer, members of the band were sitting on the front porch relaxing when they felt the sonic boom of a fiery rainbow-colored meteor passing through the Earth's atmosphere and streaking across the sky. Inspired by such a awesome cosmic event, the band had a new single, "Hot Rock Came To The Country," written, recorded, and rocking the airwaves 72 hours later.. It was the first time they had recorded together, and they didn't even have a name. Luckily, the answer was right under their feet. The meteor made them stop and think about all of the magical things that had happened on front porches throughout their lives. Playing guitar as the sun goes down, passing time with loved ones, and just sitting around laughing with friends. It was a perfect fit for their music. In another feat of musical inspiration, they were scheduled to rehearse when they heard about the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. They were moved to hold a 36-hour marathon writing and recording session, producing "America Standing Tall: The American Trilogy." The patriotic album was hitting airwaves just a week later. The band recently performed the world premier America Standing Tall concert, benefitting a local United Way. The concert was a huge success, with stunning multimedia imagery and brilliant musicianship. Fans were on their feet cheering, and even shedding a tear or two. The band's debut full-length album, "Somebody Tonight" is now receiving airplay and is available in stores and on the Web. Check it out right here on MP3.com!
