We're so excited to announce that we've been nominated in the 2017 "Rising Star"
category with the Carolina Beach Music Awards (CBMA). What an honor it is to be
recognized by the members of the CBMA and the Beach Music Community.

We can't wait to attend the 23rd CBMA Awards show and weekend from
November 8th - 12th in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina at the Alabama Theater.
The show is presented by Hayes Jewelers of Lexington. We're so excited to
be part of such a great community and being listed among so many talented
performers is truly an honor for us and our families.

2017 has been an exciting year for FAB with the release our album, our first single
"Feel That Way Again" climbing the Cashbox charts and hitting the number one spot
and our next single "She Don't Love Me No Mo" making it into the Top 10 and NOW
a Cammy nomination!!!

We can't thank all of our loyal fans, friends, DJ's, club owners and so many more who
support our music. We've performed several shows close to home and the local
community support has been overwhelming. We're trying to bring a little
Southside Virginia flavor to the Beach Music scene and because of your support we're
closer than ever.

We can't express our thanks enough and we ask that you please continue doing exactly
what you're doing and join us for the ride!!!

FAB would like to officially welcome back two of our former members.

From Virginia Beach, Virginia we welcome back Wilton "The Animal" Ferguson
on drums and vocals. Animal is a founding member of F.A.B. and left breifly
but he's now back and ready to finish what he helped start. You will recognize
Animal from his previous bands that include: Fat Ammons Band, The Rhondels,
Liberation just to name a few.

On lead guitar and vocals we welcome back Jonathan "JJ" Sharpe from Victoria, Virginia.
JJ was with us during the Overtime days and he took some time off to spend more time
with his family. Now at the age of 35, JJ is back. You will recognize JJ from his previous
bands that include: Crossfire, Bootleg, Overtime & Uncorked to name a few.

To learn more about Animal, JJ and the rest of the guys be sure to visit "The Band"
page on our website.

Currently "Feel that way again" has moved into the number fourteen spot and has spent thirtyfour weeks on the charts. Our newest release "She Don't Love Me No Mo" has moved into the number twenty position after seven weeks on the chart. Keep those requests coming to your favorite DJ's and if you're not hearing us on your favorite station, call them and let them know!!!!

During a recent visit to the area, our very own Bo Newcomb had the opportunity to meet Mike Wolfe from the History Channel's show American Pickers. With the two stars in such close proximity as you can imagine security was tight but they stopped for a moment to pose for this photo during the choas :)

Our original song "Feel that way again" climbed the charts and reached the number 1 position on the CashBox The Beach Top40 Charts. We have so many great songs on our new CD we weren't sure which one to release first but after receiving advice from several industry professionals we decided on Feel that way again and we're sure glad we did. Receiving so many requests and downloads, we hoped to simply make it on the charts and never imagined we would hit the top spot. The support has been overwhelming and we can't say thank you enough to everyone that has called and requested. We sincerely appreciate it!
