1. Firm Passenger was formed on a chilly November night in a college dorm room. Founding members, Barry Atwood (vocals and guitar) and Jesse Cherry (drums), were roommates who used to play music together to relieve the stress of their engineering studies. Barry’s soulful voice, acoustic guitar skills, and Jesse’s love for percussions gave birth to their unique sound. One night, while they were playing music, their classmate, Maria Lorraine (bass guitarist), happened to pass by and was captivated by their sound. She asked to join them, leading to the inception of Firm Passenger.

They began playing at small college events and quickly gained a reputation for their unique sound. Their breakthrough came when they were spotted by a record executive at their college’s annual music festival. Their combination of heartfelt lyrics, catchy melodies, and energetic live performances quickly caught the attention of the music industry, leading to their signing with a major record label. Since then, Firm Passenger has been on a journey that has taken them beyond their wildest dreams, selling out stadiums and topping charts worldwide.

2. Their music genre is a unique blend of alternative rock and indie pop.

3. One of their most popular song titles is “Riding the Night”.
