“FitZ,” a six-member R&R, indie band, finished their much-anticipated, Nashville-produced album with a
debut in South River, NL to a packed audience recently.
“From the Beginning” CD with 10 original songs and a bonus features Greg and Dave Fitzpatrick at their
best: writing, performing and producing. The album, produced in Nashville at Bob Angello Sound Studio
and completed in Newfoundland, has country-inspired songs with a blend of rock and roll.
With literally hundreds of songs to their credit, the brothers chose a cohesive collection for the CD that
not only displays their immense talent, but also pays homage to the music they’ve loved since childhood.
Country music legends like Hank Williams, George Jones and Willie Nelson have provided a solid
foundation of good music that resonates in the songs on the new album.
Known for their music variety, and especially apparent on “FitZ’s” first CD, “Out of the Blue,” the brothers,
have a wide range of songs that appeal to a diverse audience. The new album, however, showcases and
melds the strength of the brothers into a hearty, well-selected lineup that is reminiscent of earlier groups
like The Eagles and The Young Rascals with the soul and heart of country music.
Greg’s velvet voice mellows out intense lyrics on some songs while Dave’s deeper, often soulful delivery
brings the songs to life. The harmony is pure magic with a richness that gives “FitZ” its recognizable
sound.
From ballads like “After the Show” to the extremely danceable, “Internet Radio,” fans will love the new
album. Also included on “From the Beginning” CD is the song, “Cardboard Condo,” a first-person
account of being homeless in today’s society. Greg wrote the song to bring public awareness to the plight
of our country’s growing homeless population. It’s included as a bonus track..
