Firehouse is an American rock band that carved its place in the music industry with a blend of hard rock and glam metal, achieving significant popularity in the early 1990s. The band was formed in Charlotte, North Carolina in 1989 by vocalist C.J. Snare, guitarist Bill Leverty, bassist Perry Richardson, and drummer Michael Foster. Their self-titled debut album "Firehouse" released in 1990, catapulted them to fame with hits like "Don't Treat Me Bad" and the power ballad "Love of a Lifetime," which became their signature song. The album's success was followed by "Hold Your Fire" in 1992, which featured another chart-topping hit, "When I Look Into Your Eyes."
While the rise of grunge and alternative rock shifted the musical landscape, Firehouse continued to produce music and maintain a loyal fanbase through the 1990s and into the new millennium. Albums like "3" (1995) showcased their ability to adapt, incorporating a more mature style, whereas "Good Acoustics" (1996) demonstrated the band's versatility with acoustic renditions of their hits. Even as musical trends evolved, Firehouse persisted with releases such as "Category 5" (1998) and "Prime Time" (2003), while maintaining a presence on international touring circuits, particularly in countries where their brand of melodic hard rock remained popular. Their commitment to their music and the enduring quality of their sound have made Firehouse a lasting entity in the rock genre.
