NotForgotten is about more than just the music; there is a message. The message is hope. The message is grace. The message is love. The message to all those who feel like they’ve been forgotten: YOU ARE NotForgotten.
NF is: Kevin Leach (vocals, guitar, piano), Brandon Tijerina (percussion), and Danny Leach (bass, vocals).
Hailing from rural Northwest Ohio, this young and surprisingly talented three piece creates an unsullied, inventive sound that supports uplifting and inspiring lyrics. With the average age of the band being 18, NotForgotten appeals to a younger crowd and yet earns the respect of older generations with their positive message. Their passion, integrity, and sincerity have launched the band into an upward spiral of success and favor. However, their focus remains on their mission. 21-year-old front man Kevin Leach explains, “Our love for music brought us together, but our love for people keeps us going. There’s a real power in music and we’re attempting to harness it. If our music can reach into the lives of people to make a real difference, then we are fulfilling our vision.â€
The band produced and cut their own Demo CD with a local studio (MKA productions) in response to the demand from their loyal fan base—and sold hundreds of CDs within weeks. Momentum has continued to pick up after playing concerts throughout the Midwest, down the east coast, and all the way through Florida and back. Most recently, NotForgotten returned home from Orlando, FL where they recorded their debut album with grammy award winning platinum producer Frankie Biggz. The Album will be released summer of 2009!
