Tampa Tribune review of Burn So Bright - 01.05.07
by Curtis Ross: With each album, Four Star Riot's melodic pop-rock gets tighter, tougher and more focused. Steve Alex's soul/R&B-oriented solo work has given his vocals a new authority. "Burn So Bright" is Four Star Riot at its best.

"Get What U Give" from the Tonight&Tomorrow CD has just been picked up by ESPN.  It can be heard on Baseball Tonight and SportsCenter this fall. It is also featured in the 20th Century Fox film Like Mike 2 which was released on Fox Home Video this summer.  

In February, we had an incredible experience playing for 15,000 people in our hometown arena. Check out the video from our show opening for Bon Jovi at the St. Pete Times Forum. - click here -
