Overnight, singer Nate Peck shared a post on his Facebook about his singing journey and his eventual road to FireHouse. There's details on how he met Great White legend Jack Russell and CJ Snare of FireHouse. I found it interesting and you might too.
Text of the full post below:
I just want to take the time to thank some people who have helped me on this rock ‘n’ roll journey that i have experienced! I want to thank kafig for introducing me to Tracy Lee of ARM Entertainment which had then led me to meet Bill Richard (Personal Assistant of Jack Russell) Bill Richard was the first to introduce me to my idol Jack Russell (legendary voice of Great White) Fast forward to early 2023 where i had built my relationship personally with Jack talking a lot over the phone and sharing the stage with him occasionally guest singing on the song “Save your Love” during that time i had also bonded with Robby Lochner, Ken Mary And Tony of Jack russells great white. Then came late September early October, my life completely changed when Robby Lochner had contacted Bill Leverty of Firehouse when they needed someone to fill in For Cj Snare. Just a few days after Robby had called me about the proposition Bill Leverty had called me offering me the spot to fill In For Cj and i gladly accepted it to help them out with whatever they needed at the time! I then spent the next 6 months creating an amazing relationship with Cj Snare, Bill Leverty, Michael Foster, Allen McKenzie, joey arias and Tony Avitar! During that period i spent a considerable amount of time talking to Cj over the phone listening to him give me advice on singing, working the crowd, and most importantly pacing yourself on stage! April 5th we got the News that Cj Had unfortunately passed away. That hit me extremely hard as it did to fans and his bandmates. I treasure the short friendship that me and him shared and i will forever be grateful that i had the chance to be coached by such a fabulous singer! After his untimely passing i was then offered to pursue the position of replacing him which was not easy for me to do due to how fast things has changed. As lead singer of this amazing band FireHouse i will do my best to continue Cj’s legacy and honor the songs they have written! Again thank you to everyone who has helped me make my childhood dreams come true and continue to! Thank you
