"We are extremely excited to let our fans know that we are 1 of 3 winners as part of the "Feed The Beat" competition from Taco Bell!

The “Best of the Beat” winners can thank the legions of devoted fans who voted this October and November on Taco Bell’s Virtual Music Festival Web site (www.feedthebeat.com). One hundred Feed the Beat bands showcased their music, photos, bios and tour schedules on the site, vying for the chance to become “Best of the Beat.” More than 180,000 votes were cast over the past six weeks and Hit the Lights, Thousand Foot Krutch and yours truly (Fireflight) outlasted the competition to win the bracket-style contest.

“Music fans have spoken and they’ve selected three amazing bands that we can help take that next big step in their careers,” said David Ovens, Chief Marketing Officer, Taco Bell Corp. “These winning bands not only impressed us with their passion for music but also with their ability to mobilize their fan base to vote them ‘Best of the Beat’.

"We are thrilled to be a part of the winners circle and have our amazing fans to thank for it,” said Dawn Richardson, leader signer, Fireflight. “Working with Taco Bell is perfect for us, as late night eaters. We're excited to be a part of the discovery of new music, and supporting Fourthmeal!"

Honestly, we are so thankful for our fans. You continue to show your support in so many ways.

Thank You!
More to come,
FIREFLIGHT"
