Bolingbrook Musician Releases First Album

Submitted by Valley View School District 365U

Bolinbgbrook, IL — Bolingbrook High School senior Tristan Jewel Abrams and her teen band “Fire the Canon” just released their debut album this month.

Abrams started playing the piano at age 3, singing and playing guitar at age 7, bass guitar at age 10, and Saxophone at age 12. She has been a composer and ASCAP writer since age 7. She played at The Metro in Chicago with Girls Rock at the age of 11 and again at age 12.

She has opened as a vocalist at the Arcada Theatre for such acts as Jefferson Starship, and also performed at shows with Wayne Messmer and others.

Fire The Canon performs family friendly classic and modern rock including music from Jefferson Airplane, Weezer, Pat Benetar, Joan Jett, Foo Fighters, The Beatles, Survivor, Green Day and RadioHead. Their original song "Donut Girl” was written after their lead guitarist bought donuts and a girl wrote her number on the back of his receipt. (He later texted the number and got no reply. She eventually attended a show but informed the hopeful young rocker that she had a boyfriend and was no longer available.)

Their new album is available on iTunes, Spotify, IHeart Radio, CD Baby, and Amazon Music and is being played on more than 300 college radio stations and some 3,000 Internet radio stations worldwide.
