Five For Fighting Is Just One Guy

Did you know Five For Fighting is just one guy, John Ondrasik, who picked the name because his label thought his last name was too hard to say? Since the early 2000s, his anthems like “Superman” and “100 Years” have stayed huge — even though fans thought it was a band. The name? Inspired by hockey penalties. He’s also been rocking stages overseas for troops and even joked about touring with Ben Folds Five. This Saturday, he’s live in Salina with Edwin McCain at 7:30 PM. Plus, his songs have been everywhere — featured in over 350 TV shows, movies, and commercials. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
