WARRANT
At its core, WARRANT is an American rock band through and through. Hitting it big in 1989, the Hollywood, CA based band rose through the ranks of the local Sunset Strip scene to the level of multiplatinum selling, chart-topping success. The band first came into the national spotlight with their debut album Dirty Rotten Filthy Stinking Rich. This album produced Radio and MTV chart toppers "Down Boys," "Sometimes She Cries," and the massive hit "Heaven" which reached #1 in Rolling Stone and #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 for two weeks in a row. The single "Heaven" enjoyed Gold sales and the Album went Platinum in Canada as well, eventually selling over 3 million copies. The band toured the globe performing 262 shows in support of DRFSR and closed the year with a Platinum Home Video.
WARRANT's sophomore album Cherry Pie was released in September 1990. This album, which spawned the MTV & Radio hits "Cherry Pie," "Uncle Tom's Cabin," and "I Saw Red," all reached the Top 10 in the United States and went on to sell 3 million copies, reaching Platinum sales in Canada and Australia. The band played 200 shows in support of Cherry Pie and finished the tour headlining sheds all over the USA and ended up being one of the top grossing tours of 1991. Over the course of their career, WARRANT has sold over 10 million albums worldwide. The song "Cherry Pie" has taken on a pop culture life of its own, being featured in countless movies, TV shows, commercials and the hugely popular video game Guitar Hero II.
WARRANT's signature style of rock music is very catchy and yet very melodic and remains the band's signature sound today. In September 2008, Robert Mason replaced Jani Lane (RIP) as lead vocalist joining the other four original members, Jerry Dixon, Steven Sweet, Joey Allen and Erik Turner. Their current album Louder Harder Faster, released on Frontiers Records, has been highly regarded in reviews and embraced by fans.
WARRANT has been headlining festivals, casinos and fairs all over the country in support of their latest CD Louder Harder Faster and the 30 year anniversary of their debut album Dirty Rotten Filthy Stinking Rich. The band is fired up and tighter than every musically! These rockers can't wait to play not only ALL the hits fans know & love, but also new tunes/videos like "Louder Harder Faster" & "I Think I Will Just Stay Here & Drink."
FireHouse
FireHouse has been rockin' for over three decades. Their music has taken them all over the world and has produced gold, platinum, and multi-platinum records in the United States and abroad. Their career began in 1990 with the release of their self-titled debut album FireHouse on Epic Records.
The band's first single release to metal radio, Shake & Tumble, enjoyed impressive success, selling over 100,000 copies instantaneously. The band then released Don't Treat Me Bad, which became their first Top Ten hit. This was followed by Love of a Lifetime, which also entered the Top Ten, reaching the #3 spot on the United States charts and was awarded Bridal Magazine's "Wedding Song of the Year".
This string of hits vaulted FireHouse's self-titled debut album to double platinum status in the United States, and it also went gold in Canada and several countries in Asia. At the 1992 American Music Awards, FireHouse found themselves accepting the award for Best New Hard Rock/Metal Band in 1991, chosen over Nirvana and Alice in Chains.
The band's second album, released in 1992, Hold Your Fire, produced hits such as Reach for the Sky, Sleeping with You, and When I Look into Your Eyes, which peaked at #5 on the US charts. This album earned the band two more gold albums and sold over 2 million copies worldwide.
