Check out
what the
media is
saying about
Fighting
Gravity:
"If the
songwriting
approach of
Dave
Matthews
Band were to
absorb the
upbeat
rhythms of
world beat
and reggae,
the result
would sound
like
Fighting
Gravity."
Billboard
Magazine
"McGee -
whose
velvety,
soulful
vocals at
times recall
former
English Beat
singer Dave
Wakeling...
FG's songs
are
infections
and upbeat."
Rolling
Stone
Magazine
" It's
payoff time
for this
Virginia-bred
band, which
has been
wooing
college
crowd around
the nation
for more
than a
decade. With
is
first-ever
single, a
lick,
beautifully
sung
testament to
devotion,
the foursome
shows what
it's learned
since those
early days.
Musically
the song
feature a
comfortable,
organic
arrangement,
mixing bass
drums and
guitar
(including
some nice
melodic
hooks). What
really sells
this
uplifting
trace,
though, is
the
harmonies
that swell
throughout
its crisply
executed 3
minutes. The
story is
just
beginning
for this
talented
ensemble;
the first
boat is
leaving the
dock now. Be
on it."
Billboard
Magazine
"Onstage
these guys
really
cook..
Fighting
Gravity's
music just
gets under
your skin...
Check out FG
before they
get so big
that the
Hampton
Coliseum
sells out in
one day!"

"As
infectious
as world
beat rhythms
are live...
Richmond's
Fighting
Gravity who
use it as a
meringue on
a flaky
crust of pop
and a little
black bottom
metal pie,
are the best
bets in some
time to take
it to the
top."
