about

Winter 2016. Cole Tyler, Anthony Graziano, Dave Gambon and Ryan Hottenrott are working hard in preparation for the recording of their second album. It had been long coming. In the two years since the release of their debut, The FORZ had certainly changed. They’d been through professional and personal turmoil. They had branched out into the surrounding territories and had begun making a name for themselves. As they walked into Mystic Valley Studios to work once again with producer Alex Garcia-Rivera, The FORZ knew they were making something special. Like a pot on the verge of boiling over, the band had found their sound, perfected it, and were more than ready to show the world exactly what they are capable of. “Running From The Past” features 14 songs, once again all written by Cole Tyler or Anthony Graziano. With help from friend and musician Ian Motha on one track and vocals from Amy Slattery on another, the album is a well rounded power pop experience. From the spooky-surf infused title track, the danceable “Beyond The Laughing Sky”, and the soul influenced rocker “Alone With Someone New” (featuring Cole Tyler’s larynx shredding vocals), The FORZ’ second release provides listeners a fascinating insight into the minds of four, young, like minded, individuals trying to escape their past and who are sure to keep you coming again and again.

"Running From The Past" was recorded between Spring 2015 and Spring 2016. The song "Love Is A Lesson" was recorded in the band's rehearsal room at BandStand Live. Three songs were recorded but ultimately left off of "Running From The Past", "Over and Over Again", "Times Like These" and "Sent From Another".
