Singled Out: Fly Away Hero's Hercules


. (Radio.com) Today Fly Away Hero's Dalton Rapattoni tells us about the song "Hercules" from their brand new EP "Lost and Found", which was produced by Blue October's Matt Noveskey. Here is the story:

The writing/recording process of our song "Hercules" was an interesting and unusual one. Most of the songs on our EP Lost and Found were just written my me, and selected by the band and the producers of the EP, but Hercules was a different story.

I wrote the song with my good friend and previous band mate Will Jay. The band that we were in was touring with a dance convention at the time, and we were stopped in Las Vegas for a show. I normally write songs by myself, but I was compelled to show Will an early rough draft of Hercules. He and I went back and forth on it for a while and what we came out with was the song that's on "Lost and Found".

When we were picking songs for the EP, I didn't think that Hercules was even an option. But once the band and the producers heard the song they told me that they wanted it on the record! In the end I'm really glad that they decided to bring it back, because it's become one of my favorite songs from Lost and Found.

Hearing is believing. Now that you know the story behind the song, listen for yourself here and learn more about the EP and the band right here!
