Artist Bio

In 2010, two old High School friends decided to start a Southern Rock/Country band based around original music that mattered to people. Music that could make a difference in someone's life and touch on the everyday emotions we all feel, in a positive way. Ryan Schneider and Dominick Mauro began writing FbF's first album, entitled "Believe". Along the way, Long time friend Michael Giamietti was added on Drums, And Maria Soaft was added as a second vocalist.

Believe was released in 2012, to rave reviews from places such as Scope Magazine, New England Americana Critic Noah Coakley, renowned local producer Vic Steffans, and quite a few other entities, both local and national. Ryan and Dominick took their music to the Nashville area, earning acclaim and playing multiple showcases in places like the Bluebird Cafe, Pict's Cafe, Douglas Corner, the Commodore, BB King's, and Rickard's, joining with many area songwriters to learn the craft of songwriting.

On the strength of their first album, FbF toured the entire New England and New York metro area, including the Boston Music Conference, The Knitting Factory, the National Underground, and Freedomfest New Jersey, with the tour ending at Showcase Live in Gillette Stadium, opening for the Marshall Tucker Band in front of thousands of fans.

As FbF started writing the second album, "Whiskey and Song" Ryan left to start a family. Keyboardist and Fiddle player Lawrence Wenthon was added to the lineup. Whiskey and Song was released in 2015, again to rave reviews. Another tour of the New England and New York area was completed, this time opening for national acts such as Black Jack Billy, Chris Jansen, and Keith Anderson to name a few. Almost every major festival saw a Forgotten by Friday show, save a precious few. That tour ended with a CTnow Connecticut music award for best original country band, and several nominations for the New England Music Awards.

Nick Mangan was added as the new guitar players in this time period, and FbF added dozens of popular cover songs with the intent of playing more local venues.

In closing, FbF is a very talented Southern Rock/Country band who can play any venue, arena, or type of show. All original music, opening for a national on a huge stage? Absolutely. Mostly cover shows in a smaller local club? No Problem. Festivals? That's what we live for. And, the FbF sound is very family friendly, and guaranteed to entertain any size crowd. Please let us know how we can help you. Thank you.
