UTC-04:00Location
Watertown Fairgrounds Arena | Watertown, NY
We're sad to learn of the passing of CJ Snare, the original lead vocalist, and a founding member of the musical group FireHouse. We were looking forward to CJ rejoining the band after recovering from surgery last fall. Unfortunately, due to CJ's untimely passing, that won't be possible. FireHouse will however still be performing with Warrant on Saturday, May 11 at the Municipal Arena in Watertown NY.
Nate Peck, 2023 American Idol Golden Ticket recipient from Season 21, will be handling vocals. With CJ's blessing and full support, Nate has been singing with the band in CJ's absence over the past 6 months.
CJ left an indelible mark on the music industry with his soaring vocals and the FireHouse music he helped craft.
Reach for the Sky CJ! Your memory and your music will live on forever.
