Facing the giants

Our Story

 

Facing the Giants is a high energy trio that plays a wide variety of music spanning decades. Starting from the 50’s with songs like Love Potion #9 to Dream Lover, but not the way you’ve ever heard them before. Through the 60’s to 70’s with artists like The Doors, The Beatles, Johnny Cash and CCR. Following through the 80’s with artists ranging from Billy Idol to Billy Joel with some Ramones and Misfits thrown in for good measure. Finally ending up in the 90’s to now with bands like Pearl Jam, Sublime, Tom Petty, Foo Fighters and Weezer. FTG also writes and performs their own original music. 


Hailing from Northeast Pa, they believe in giving back to the community donating their time and talent to numerous causes and benefits varying from Blue Chip Animal Farms Refuge to Autism Awareness to Big Brothers, Big Sisters.


If you are having a bar mitzvah, bat mitzvah,  quinceañera , sweet sixteen party, graduation party, wedding, 40th birthday party, 21 birthday party, and I just got out of jail party (well, maybe not that one), a hey we just killed a pig and now we're gonna eat it party, or a just an all around let's get drunk for the hell of it party, well we want to play it!

24 hours a day, seven days a week! No job is too big, no fee is too big!
