About Me

ADD THIS BANNER TO YOUR PAGE:
Our CD Apologies and Instincts available to purchase through Smartpunk:
Upon forming in the fall of 2004, Firestone Elementary began with one goal in mind. That goal was simply to rock out and let their musical influences take them into a realm they could call their own.
With the release of their three song demo in the early spring of 2005, the band quickly started on a campaign to take northern Ohio "the rust belt" by storm. Since that time their loyal fan following has been chanting one more song at venues throughout Cleveland, Kent, and Youngstown. Not enough can be said about the growing fan base that continues support this group from show to show no matter how much drive time may be involved. In an email addressed to the band, a newly acquired fan writes;
"You guys have to come back and keep playing in Cleveland!!! It's the rock capital of the world and you guys Firestone Elementary represent that. Somebody great needs to hit the big scene and it needs to be you guys!!! Rock out and come back soon, please!!!"
Thanks to their hard work and dedication to the music scene over the past six years Nathan, Justin, Adam, Jonathan, and Jeremy have built Firestone Elementary to remain in a district all by itself. Bass player Justin Waite explains, I think you can hear our dedication to perfection in our music. We work really hard to achieve a sound that we can be proud to call our own. I think the reason that people keep coming out to our shows is because we are able to accomplish just that.
