Taking their name from a comment made after several failed attempts to catch the lead singer’s boxer puppy named Corona, the band has quickly made a name for themselves here in Va Beach.
The lead singer, Cole Childers, and the lead guitarist, Brian Farley, met in 2005 while deployed overseas in Aqaba, Jordan during a night of "Battle of the Ship's Bands". The next morning the 2 ships, USS Kearsarge (Brian's ship) and the USS Ashland (Cole's ship) came under a terrorist attack.
When they returned they wrote and recorded their debut album "Black Eye and Candlelight" at Soul Haven in Va Beach.
Drummer Johnny Tatum and Bassist Kevin Palos joined the band in May of 2008. They did not record on the album but are the best thing to have ever happened to the band. We also have control of the Myspace page MUUAHHAHAHAHA!
We want to thank all of our fans, both new and old, the fellow musicians that we have met along the way.!
Hope to see you at our next show! -Chasing Corona
