Biografia

  • Five For Fighting is the stage name of Vladimir Ondrasik, an American singer/songwriter hailing from Los Angeles, California, U.S born on January 7th 1965. He has released six albums since 1997 and has had three major hit singles, the most succesful of which was 2001’s “Superman (It’s Not Easy)”.

    Strangely enough for the prodigal child of a musical family, Vladimir Ondrasik began his music career in earnest far later than most would, signing his first record deal when he was 31 years old. Up until that point, while he was a talented pianist and guitarist and had been all throughout his childhood and teenage years, music was a hobby for him, a pastime while he focused on a career in applied sciences. However, after he left college the desire to create music became stronger and stronger, and he started devoting more time to songwriting and performing all around his local indie rock scene in L.A. The ice hockey obsessed Ondrasik took the stage name Five For Fighting after the five minute time penalty a hockey player receives for fighting on the rink and by late 1996, he’d signed a record deal with the EMI subsidiary Nettwerk Records.

    His debut album “Message For Albert” wasn’t a smash hit, but it was enough to secure Ondrasik a major label deal with Columbia Records and his second effort “America Town”, was the smash hit that “Message For Albert” wasn’t. Released in September 2000, it was certified Platinum of the back of its second single “Superman (It’s Not Easy), which was a top fifteen hit on the Billboard Hot 100 and certified Platinum in its own right. Ever since then, Ondrasik has remained one of the most beloved singer/songwriters of his generation, with over two and a half million albums sold and sold out shows all over the United States that continue to this very day. He remains an unmissable act both live and in the studio, and for that, Five For Fighting comes highly recommended.

  • Five For Fighting

    Five For Fighting. It’s an ice hockey term that means a five-minute penalty for fighting in the rink. When you think of it musically, the name sounds like a full band, but it is really just the stage name of Vladimir John Ondrasik III. He is a very talented man, being a singer-songwriter as well as classically trained as a pianist and guitar player; all of which he includes in his songs.

    His stage was set with a beautiful grand piano, and when the show started, the lights dimmed to darkness, and then the music started, as the lights would slowly dim on again. As the lighting starts to pick up, you also see that he has a string quartet to support him. He opened with “Superman,” possible the best choice in opening songs because it showcases not only his piano skills but also gives you his great vocal ability. His vocal range is very wide, and the sound is extremely unique. What’s best about his shows, and his music in general, are that they are so relaxing and the added effect of the strings builds up his sound.

    Also in his set, among others, he performed “The Riddle,” “Chances” and “100 Years.” All you had to do was close your eyes and take in the music, and enjoy the perfect music for a beautiful summer evening under the stars.

  • Despite his stage pseudonym alluding to a punk band or something of the like, Vladimir John Ondrasik III makes piano lead rock to successful effect. After he appeared on the circuit in the late 90s, the American musician has gone on to chart moderately well on the Billboard album and singles chart and has accompanied each release with a well attended tour.

    There is a charm and an intrigue when it comes to piano musicians as perhaps it is the closest to a classic performance we are going to find in the modern day. Ondrasik takes his time between releases as each body of work is carefully considered and designed to an extent and this level of detail shines tonight as he plays a variety of soundscapes for the crowds to get lost within. Both his playing abilities and his vocal shine brightest on the stripped back '10 Miles From Nowhere' and 'Two Lights' and by the time the finale of 'Nobody' comes the whole crowd are on their feet to celebrate the great musician.

  • Beautiful show. The string quartet complimented John's music perfectly. Loved all the stories he told through out the show to preface his songs! No videos could be taken which was disappointing, not sure if that was his request or the venue. From our view I couldn't see John when sitting at the piano because the gutiar placement was blocking it. But really great show overall. Very happy!

  • An hour and a half of pure listening pleasure. Exceeded my expectations. The Four for Fighting quartet was a joy. The Birchmere venue was excellent too. Five stars all around.
