Fight The Fade Biography
Band Members: Jason McPhail - Vocals/Guitar Tyler Simpson - Guitar/vocals Trevor Taylor - Bass Chris Robertson - Drums Fight the Fade is a Christian rock band based out of Oklahoma. Known for their uncompromising, hard hitting message and sound, FTF is stirring it up again with their sophomore album titled "American Missionary". On May first 2009, four guys set out with a purpose, to reach people for Christ using rock and roll, and a powerfull testimony time by lead singer Jason Mcphail. The doors began flying open as within the first year of the bands existance, FTF saw roughly 125-150 first time salvations (people who have never accepted Christs sacrifice on the cross for their sins), and hundreds more prayed with about addictions, hurts and many other things. Saying the things that many people are thinking or want to say, but are afraid to, FTF makes no bones about it, they are ready to see a reformation in the way the people of God think. That you live where you live because God has strategically placed you there, to be a missionary. Another very unique quality of the band is that they give away bibles and their music at every show for free! So far, the band has given away 3,500 copies of their first self titled album and are gearing up for more this album. Fight the Fade also was blessed with many more major opportunties sharing stages all across the south and mid-west with bands such as Brian "Head" Welch (formerly of superband Korn"), Thousand Foot Krutch, Disciple, fieflight, Chasen, Everyday Sunday, The Wedding, a mid-west tour with Seventh Day Slumber and are scheduled to take the stage this fall with Kutless, The Letter Black and the Showdown. Fight the Fade was featured in an Oklahoma magazine and was quoted as saying, "We want to see a revolution in the Christian music industry, where the message becomes more important than the album sales." Their new American Missionary album is just that, toe crushing lyrics, hard hitting drum lines, ripping guitar and bass solos and best of all, zero fluff.
