A BIDDING war amongst all the major labels took place recently to sign new American Christian rock band Family Force 5. The band have now signed with Madonna's Maverick Records, with Gotee handling the Christian marketplace. The nucleus of Family Force 5 are three brothers, Jacob, Joshua and Solomon Olds, sons of veteran CCM performer Jerome Olds. In 1995 Jacob, Joshua and Solomon released an album 'R.P.M.' on Star Song Records under the name The Brothers.

Dudes, I saw their old man play back in the day, back at Breakaway in the 80s. Jerome was AWESOME. Yama, yama--yea-hey-ha. Tater 1 to Tater 2! I lovest thou. Trains up in the sky, baby. The Olds boys used to come up on stage and dance. Those were the days. Love to Jerome from the Falcon.
