Tommy Harrison Group is an Orlando, Florida based hard rock band whose Fight to Survive will be released on 30th May via From the Ashes Records.
Originally starting as an instrumental trio with diverse influences in classic hard rock, metal and jazz, Harrison’s first, self-titled album was released in 2017.
Since then, Harrison has moved towards his hard rock roots and enlisted the vocal talents of Mark Kaleiwahea for this new 2025 EP release.Kaleiwahea is most recognised as the long-time vocalist and guitarist for Honolulu based Sacred Rite, a powerful force in the underground metal scene in the 1980s and 1990s, a group still active to this day.
Like Kaleiwahea, Harrison is native to Hawaii and are both now residents of Florida. Harrison is best known for his time in the Denver band, Dogs of Pleasure, and time in the Hollywood club scene in the early 1990s with Aristocratic Trash, voted a top band by Music Connection magazine in 1992. Harrison is also known as an academic – this rocking professor is on the faculty at the University of Central Florida.
Joined by drummer Joshua Priest, the Tommy Harrison Group will be releasing a series of singles in summer 2025, they began with the EP’s title track and now follow it with ‘True Redemption’.
