Five For Fighting with String Quartet

John Ondrasik, the platinum-selling, Grammy-nominated artist known as Five for Fighting, has spent more than two decades crafting songs that have become part of the American soundtrack. Since his breakout single “Superman (It’s Not Easy),” Ondrasik has released six studio albums—including America Town, The Battle for Everything, and Two Lights—and written enduring hits like “100 Years,” “The Riddle,” and “Chances.” With over one billion streams and extensive media placements, his music resonates across generations and occasions.

Ondrasik’s performance at the 2001 Concert for New York, held in honor of first responders after the September 11 attacks, remains a career-defining moment. Today, his heartfelt songwriting and signature falsetto continue to captivate audiences around the world. Backed by his piano-driven arrangements and emotional depth, Five for Fighting is a testament to the staying power of sincere, thoughtful pop rock.
