Bio:
Considering the circumstances under which Dave Niederberger (vocals) and Marco Troxler (guitar) laid the foundations for Fighter V on a Saturday night, they are almost like the cliché of an exaggerated autobiography of a ragged rock star of the 80s.Because just like every weekend, the two moved back into this bar, in the middle of the old town of Lucerne. Named Spelunke was always far and wide as one of the last bastions of rock music. It is tight, confusing, cigarette smoke smokes from all corners, the alcohol flows in streams and the volume of the music is at the pain threshold of the bearable - But as I said, they play rock music, which counts alone!It was long after midnight, and a couple of beers had flowed, while the boxes were filled with classics by Bon Jovi, Whitesnake, Journey, Survivor, and Def Leppard. It was this powerful sound that only had a logical consequence in the minds of the two young boys: we want to do that too! Contrary to all trends and contrary to practically everything that could be heard on the radio. Their shared passion for rock music of the 80s left no doubt as to where the project should go from the beginning. Stadium skirt without ifs and buts.When the idea had lost none of its significance in the days after, the two set out in search of like-minded people. The search went smoothly at the beginning. A bassist is quickly found in the person of Luca Troxler, as he still lives in the same household as Marco Troxler. And in the closer circle of colleagues one found with Lucien Egloff a drummer with stage experience. Much more grueling, however, was the search for a suitable comrade on the keyboard - and yes, keyboard was and is a must for the sound of Fighter V. Various attempts failed because of the fact that the goals of the 4 existing members and the keyboarder are not compatible left. Sometimes with keyboarder and then again without the band played about 50 concerts a year. Among other things in the opening act of bands like The Dead Daisies, Fozzy, Bonfire or Molly Hatchet, the band made a name for itself as an energetic live act.Hoping for epic keyboard sounds almost abandoned, the band met Felix Commerell in the spring of 2018. Although a bit younger than the rest of the band, it soon proved to be a powerful support for the intended sound as well as organizational issues within the formation.Inspired by a new tailwind, the five Swiss knew that now was the time to record an album.Every free minute of isolation in the bandroom was ahead of the songwriting trio Dave, Marco and Luca. Often there were only a few chords and the vocal melody or the lyrics at the beginning. And then it was tried out, tinkered, written, changed, discarded and rewritten. To the point where the result sounded convincing to all three. Nine months passed so before one dared to approach the demos with some producers. The echo came promptly and positively. Finally, they decided on the producer Jona Tee (keyboarder of the band H.E.A.T). His bright enthusiasm for the sound and the fact that he already produced some bands from the Melodic Rock genre, was able to convince the band. And let's be honest, who does not want to spend 4 weeks in Sweden to record a rock album?With nothing but a dozen carefully selected demos and a shared love for Stadium Rock, they embarked on their journey north. In the spring of 2019, the album FIGHTER was created there in close cooperation with producer Jona Tee.The trip to Sweden and also the new entry of Felix had given the band so much exciting, fresh air that it was time to give the project a worthy name.To the title track of the album FIGHTER, the band quickly made a close bond, in particular its message: "Do not give up, stay tuned, keep moving forward". Provided with the small complement of the Roman five "V" FIGHTER V was born.The song material aroused the interest of various labels and distributors. After intense talks and negotiations, Fighter V signed in the summer of 2019 at Rock Attack Records, Germany.A total of 4 singles are released before or after the release of the debut album with music video. The debut album FIGHTER will be released on October 11, 2019. Followed by a support tour for THE NEW ROSES and a headliner tour of Central Europe, Fighter V faces an exciting future.
