Legendary rock band, Survivor, is embarking on their next chapter with a new member who has seemingly given new life to one of rock ‘n’ roll’s preeminent bands. With 21-year-old Nashville resident Cameron Barton assuming lead vocalist duties, the group is delivering their trademark arena rock sound to their loyal and devoted fan base.
Survivor released their first album in 1980 and their first Top-40 on the Hot 100 came the next year with “Poor Man’s Son.” Their big break would come in 1982 when the band was asked by Sylvester Stallone to provide the theme song for Rocky III. That single, “Eye of the Tiger,” hit # 1 – staying there for seven weeks, winning a GRAMMY for “Best Rock performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal,” a People’s Choice Award, Academy Award and a Golden Globe nomination. The band also struck pay dirt as a result of a Stallone movie when “Burning Heart” appeared on the soundtrack of Rocky IV in 1985, hitting # 2 on the singles chart. Vital Signs, was another huge success for the band, peaking at #16 on Billboard‘s “Top 200 Albums” chart thanks to the Billboard Top-20 hits “I Can’t Hold Back,” “High On You,” and “The Search Is Over.”
