Greg and David Fitzpatrick are singers and songwriters that produce, arrange and play their own music. They have worked throughout Canada, the United States and Australia.
Using Newfoundland, Canada as their home base, the brothers began their careers in their early teens. Greg being the older brother began writing, performing and producing for a group called “The Lords of London”, for whom he wrote a number one Canadian hit, “Cornflakes and Ice Cream”. For doing this, he received a BMI Award.
After a name change, the band evolved into “Nucleus”, with Greg writing and producing the very influential and successful album “Nucleus” out of A & R Studio’s New York City. The album subsequently became a Gold album and much sought after collectors idem. This album has become known as one of the most progressive albums of all time, as well as a definitive source of inspiration for many Canadian musicians.
Younger brother David began playing bars at the young age of 12 with his mother’s favorite local band, “Black Magic”. At that time he was already playing drums, bass, harmonica, guitar and some piano. David wrote his first song at age 10 and recorded it at age 12 overdubbing all the instruments. David later went on to tour as bass player with Canadian legends on the Celtic scene “Figgy Duff”. Greg and David teamed up full time when David was 15 years old. They toured all over Canada and the United States together.
David took a break from the brother’s act to tour extensively with a group called “The Fables”. They released 3 CD’s with the first one going Gold. They are the only group in Canada to do this without a label other than “The Bare-naked Ladies”. They won numerous Awards including The Entertainers of The Year at the 2002 East Coast Music Awards.
This event has become the Juno’s for the East Coast of Canada.
As a producer/ arranger and session player, David has 72 albums credited to his name. He owns his own studio and has spent countless hours mastering his craft and music.
Dave and Greg Fitzpatrick write, produce, and perform their original songs to enthusiastic audiences and have built a loyal fan base in their home country. Presenting songs from their vast catalog of over 1000 originals, the FITZ Brothers are excited to share their music and insights with the world. 'Out of the Blue', their initial offering as a group has 14 songs on the CD. Their music invokes many influences that David and Greg have had over the years. The FITZ'S have incorporated these influences into their own style and unique sound, a sound that only Brothers can achieve.
Fitz is also the melancholic punk rock sociologist from Noviot Pochetok and Retro Cabaret (Macedonia) doing some self-centered acoustic shit. https://fitzmusic.bandcamp.com/

Fitz Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You think we'll go away
But we keep climbing up
You can't keep us down
A temporary no
This shit is not for play
We're not your typical
It's time we light it up
Our match's to the grade
The tension's driving in
We ain't looking down
Watch how we take the throne
Drop like a cannonball
We take the lead, no
We're never gonna follow
Oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
Oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Don't they know, the speaker is about to explode?
Don't they know, this building is about to blow?
This building is about to
Blow, oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
Oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Three years of digging holes
Been burning through our clothes
Yeah we keep on rising high
You can't touch us now
We give it every night
Our hearts are dynamite
We spit that fire
So you better listen up
Oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
Oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Don't they know, the speaker is about to explode?
Don't they know, this building is about to blow?
Don't they know, the speaker is about to explode?
Don't they know, this building is about to blow?
This building is about to
Blow
Bang bang here we go
Everything's about to blow (oh oh, oh oh)
Our moment's going up
Blast it up and lift it up
Sky high sky high
Here we go 'bout to fly
Oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
Oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Don't they know, the speaker is about to explode?
Don't they know, this building is about to blow?
Don't they know, the speaker is about to explode?
Don't they know, this building is about to blow?
This building is about to
Blow, oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh
Oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

They continue by stating that they're not playing games and that they aren't typical. They're here for a bigger purpose, and they mean business. The chorus is a high-energy call to action, with the band declaring that they're about to "light it up," and "take the throne." They won't follow others; they'll lead and make their own path.
