When asked what brought them together, band member Eric Barker replied, “All of us had been in ego-driven bands and had experienced the negative effects of self-serving ideals. We wanted a true cooperative that focused on quality song writing and creative freedom for each band member".

​​On stage, a Fortune & Glory performance bears out Eric’s sentiment. Harmony rich vocals accompanied by three guitars, bass, drums, and keyboard produce the layered depth of experience that fans have been waiting for. It is unusual to see such fluidity among band members. Lead vocals pass from one singer to another. Band members move from one instrument to another seamlessly. You get the distinct impression that Fortune & Glory is on to something fresh, something truly impactful.
