The Voice of FireHouse Leaves Us

The music world is in mourning as we say goodbye to a rock icon. C.J. Snare, the incredible voice behind the hard rock band FireHouse, has left us at the age of 64. His daughter, Heather, shared the sad news that after a tough fight with cancer, C.J. passed away due to cardiac arrest.

A Legacy of Rock

C.J. Snare wasn’t just a band member; he was a founding force of FireHouse back in 1987. After his first band, Maxx Warrior, ended, he and his mates started what would become a legendary rock journey. C.J. was not only the voice that led the band but also played the keyboards. He poured his talent into all seven albums they released, hitting it big with their debut album which soared to double platinum status in the U.S.
