Five For Fighting has one main member, John Ondrasik, who
considers himself mainly a singer and songwriter, though he is also competent as
a guitarist and pianist. The name he picked for his band refers to a form of
discipline used in the turbulent sport of hockey. Players who fight during the
game are sent storming away to cool down for five minutes in a penalty box. In
other words, they get five for fighting.
Ondrasik, born and raised in the San Fernando Valley of Los Angeles, started his
musical training when he was only two years old. His mother, a piano teacher,
gave him lessons. When he was around 13, he appropriated -- which is a nicer way
of putting it than saying stole -- his sister's guitar. He taught himself to use
this instrument and soon to write music. Somewhere along the way, he also took
vocal lessons in opera. He soon discovered that opera wasn't his cup of tea, and
Ondrasik leaned toward music by artists like Journey, Elton John, Stevie Wonder,
and Earth, Wind & Fire.
In 1997 Ondrasik, using the stage name Five For Fighting, saw the release of his
debut album, Message for Albert, recorded under the Capitol Records label. Five
For Fighting followed it three years later with America Town, released through
Columbia Records. It continued Ondrasik's themes of love and life, but with a
bit more political spin. The album might have quite simply been another strong
outing from a talented singer/songwriter, were it not for the tragic events of
September 11th, 2001 and the nationwide embrace of Ondrasik's delicate piano
ballad "Superman [It's Not Easy]". Five For Fighting performed the song at the
Concert for New York City that winter, and America Town went platinum. While it
was a bittersweet way to find fame, "Superman"'s success gave Ondrasik the
artistic license he'd always craved. When The Battle For Everything appeared in
early 2004, it was Five For Fighting's most stylistically ambitious and
lyrically bold recording to date.
