FDNY's Bravest Sing Their Hearts Out For An A-List Artist

battle0227.jpg

The newest undiscovered music star may be among us proudly serving New York City. Now, New York's bravest will be able to display their musical heroics in the first installment of Battle of the Bravest, a new concert series that showcases the most talented unsigned bands in uniform.

The winning band will earn the once in a lifetime chance to be the opening act for a an A-List recording artist later this year. We'll have five of the bands perform on the show this morning.

You can catch round one of the Battle of the Bravest this Monday, March 2 at the Blender Theater at 8pm. All the proceeds will benefit the New York Firefighters Burn Center.

There are a few bands I'd want to hear more of. However, the harmony, and song, written by the singer, is, by far, number one. Let's hear more of them. It would be a diservice to the public not to give them the opportunity to bring their music to the public. Let's hear it for Puzzle!

Sincerely,

Elaine

wow, channel 11 has sunk so low. what a krap tv station you have become. talentless firemen with rockstar fetishes? no offense, guys, but you all suck pretty bad. i really hope you're all better firemen.

c'mon, would someone please intervene and save the spiderman tv station.

i hate to say it, but it was hard to watch these bands. i love you're morning show, but suki, why didn't you just let each band play, your interviews were painful. this really wasn't so good.
i remember the battle of the bands band you had once, they were pretty good. i feel bad for the firemen, they seem nice.

Love to hear the Puzzle Band playing down here in Naples, Fl.

We love your music!!!

Posted by Edward J. Cosgrove at March 2, 2009 1:51 PM

The songs and harmony are awesome. Let's give these guys the opportunity to strut their stuff. I'd love to hear more of their music which is written by the lead singer. Let's hear it for PUZZLE!!!!!!!

Sincerely,

Elaine

The Ed Ryan Band was energic and was nice to hear an original song created by the lead singer. An additional plus was that they had real talent. Would like to hear more!
