About Me


To put it in context, "Waiting For A Miracle" is one outspoken act. The foundingmembers; Joe Villemaire and Matt Barron, hailing from the Burlington, Vermont area, aquired the services of Ben Fineand Chris Parmelee originating from Plattsburgh, New York, forming a solid and tightly knit lineup in early 2005. "WFAM" later signed to Hotfoot Records, debuting a self - titled album inApril of 2007. With musical influences ranging from pop/rock artists of the 70’s and80’s to more aggressive and abstract contemporary artists, the band certainly leaves the fan-base demographic wide open for any of those who crave catchy hooks and bodacious jams. Shortly after the record’s release and some various touring, a new front man was tocome to light and complete the group to it’s fullest musical and operational potential. “Zak Ballard” hailing from theAlbany, New York area was definitely the right man for the job. Bringing an edgy, popvocal aspect to the readily driving, groove fulfilling rhythm section, and melodic, cooperatioanal dual guitar approach. This colorful lineup of musicians and great friends puts "Waiting For A Miracle" comfortably intotheir own niche that will continue to demand attention and captivate listeners. Astime passes "WFAM" keeps pushing forward and working feverishly with one factor in mind ....…. - The music will speakfor itself, and failure will not be an option -
