Fatal Vision with their first album, but the band was formed when Hard Rock ruled MTV and every arena. Ottawa native Simon Marwood and fellow founding members Chris Hirsekorn and Howie Manderson combined their love of bands like Asia, Journey, Europe, Survivor and Van Halen to bring a refreshing sound to melodic rock. New CD Once soon.
But life can bring unexpected changes and Fatal Vision didn’t get their chance. Fast forward to 2019, and Marwood got the chance to record at a local studio. He dusted his numerous notebooks with songs from past decades. With the blessings of the original members, Fatal Vision was brought back to life in these sessions. Featuring the extraordinarily talented band members Andrew Burns (bass), Juan Miguel Gomez Montant (guitar), producer, engineer and guitarist of numerous award winning bands; Scottie Irving (keyboards) and Alex Wickham (drums). The debut single “Turn Around” recently hit the charts worldwide; #10 in the UK and New Zealand iTunes Rock Charts, #88 in New Zealand and #89 in the UK Overall Charts, #63 in the US iTunes Rock Charts and #40 in the Spotify Local Pulse: Manchester Charts. The density of hits is extraordinary, outstanding tracks like “Heartbreaker”, “Open Your Eyes”, “Against the Wall” and “Time Keeps Slipping Away”. The debut album features contributions from hard rock heavyweights such as Lenny Castro (Toto), Alessandro Del Vecchio (Hardline, Sunstorm), Mark Holden (Boulevard), JK Northrup (King Kobra, XYZ), Marc Lafrance (Loverboy, Mötley Crüe), Paul Laine (Danger Danger, The Defiants) and Jeff Scott Soto (Journey, Talisman, Trans-Siberian Orchestra). Over 30 years after their formation, the band is bringing back the epic style of music that was thrown their way, complemented with a fresh sound. The band is ready to fire up their engines again, catchy choruses, virtuoso musicianship, a wall of backing vocals, captivating videos and a terrific live band. Hard Rock Heaven.
