When the nebulous they say rock is dead, they?ve clearly never heard Fortune Child play. The Jacksonville trio ? lead guitarist Buddy Crump, bass player Jon Ward and drummer-vocalist Christian Powers ? have been busy melting amps across Florida with their confident psychedelic take on rock?n?roll, ever since a chance encounter brought them together.
Buddy: I?d waited almost two years. But from the start, I knew, if I ever really want to start something serious, [Christian] would just have to be the guy. He?s got this husky Paul Rogers blues voice with a touch of RnB and it sounds great.
Christian: And it immediately clicked. We pulled Jon into the fold and the rest is history.
