Common Ground is a 4 piece band covering the best songs ever written and recorded. We play the best classics from Journey and AC/DC all the way to newer hits from Candlebox, Alice and Chains and Theory of a Deadman. We have the right lights and sound equipment and our own sound engineer to rock out the biggest venue to the perfect "hole in the wall" nightclub. We are also available for Weddings and private parties as well. Some of you may know us best as 3 of the 4 members from BlackThorn. We moved on to a new singer and frontman as we wanted to go in to a different direction with our music and style to suit EVERYBODYS needs! Give us a call or shoot us an email for booking information. We would love to rock your party or venue!
