Loud, hard, heavy alternative rock with a side order of melody. Pulse-pounding rhythms, high-energy performance, and thought-provoking lyrics. Their energ
FISHKILL is a three-piece band that plays hard rock with an alternative style, featuring energetic songs that are fun to listen to and may make you think if you listen carefully. It's heavy guitar-based rock, although it has been classified as punk and 80's new wave rock. Singer/Songwriter Chris Nelson's vocal style has been compared to Joey Ramone (The Ramones), Mike Love (The Beach Boys), and Ray Davies (The Kinks). Bassist Jack Hawk and Drummer Mike Williams each add to the unique blend of styles, turning it into music that's built to last. The dynamic force they create while playng carries the audience into the excitement of the performance. In actuality Fishkill strives to define its own category within the musical framework of rock. The basic goal is to give the listener a good time, like a band playing at this great party or concert you were at that you'll never forget. It's all about fun, pure and simple and everything else is window dressing. Fishkill is a featured artist on WSVN's Hall Of Fame Volume 9, A WSVN Radio Christmas CD, and is now available on the Rhapsody/Real Jukebox and BuyMusic.com online digital music services.

Story behind the song
I woke up on a bright, sunny saturday morning and this was the music I heard after looking out the window. It is optimism at its sharpest point. The weekend has begun and you have two whole days to do whatever you want to do! It's a blank page to scribble all over.
Lyrics
Weekend Anthem Copyright 2003 Chris Nelson (BMI) The sun is shining There’s no clouds in the sky The possibilities are open wide Let’s take a trip or maybe Cook in the back yard There’s no reason to stay inside The weekend! The weekend! The weekend! The weekend! There’s always something Demanding attention Some little project I can’t put off It’s pretty hot, think I’ll do it tomorrow Think I’ll follow in the ways of the sloth The weekend! The weekend! The weekend! The weekend! The road is calling me I hear it from the back yard It won’t take too long, it’s not that far Drive twenty miles for the perfect cheeseburger Any excuse to drive the car The weekend! The weekend! The weekend! The weekend! Look at all the time we have We should use it sparingly Stare at the sky, lay in the grass Let the daytime carry me We’ve been trapped behind four walls Worship you, almighty sun Just sit back without a care All at once the day is done! The weekend! The weekend! The weekend! The weekend!
