About Me


**LISTEN TO FAIRWEATHER FAN @ PUREVOLUME**
BIOGRAPHY
If there is one band who can keep you out of the mad house its Fairweather Fan. At least that’s what it is doing for them. The band’s music has been their passion and sanity from the very beginning. Having joined forces some years back, the four from Huntington, West Virgina are devoted to doing whatever it takes to make their dreams a reality.
Pat, Mike, and Zach blend together an aggressive rock altruism of layered complacent vocals, pop infused rhythm and transgressed instrumentation to create the dexterity and originality recognized on the CD/EP from Radio Eat Radio Recordings titled Truth Prevails. The band’s second release, The Ghost of Honesty, is a 10 song powerhouse recorded by Jamie Woolford (Let Go, The Format, Man Alive, Gin Blossoms). This follow-up, full-length album was released on May 1st, 2007.
There is no need to worry about their stage presence- Fairweather Fan are veterans when it comes to performing live. Having shared the stage with well-known acts such as The Ataris, Hawthorne Heights, Mae, Cool Hand Luke, The Spill Canvas, Brazil, Falling Up, Lost Ocean, Emanuel, Waking Ashland, Scenes From A Movie, Gasoline Heart, Time And Distance, Shindig and more, these boys have proved that they can hold their own and then some. Ever seen Roadhouse? Yea, it's something like that!
