Home Town Hero

Hometown Hero was a post-grunge band from Southern California active in the early 2000s. Founding members Aaron Bruno and Drew Stewart began playing together while attending Westlake High School, where their early project was known as the Ice Monkeys. They were greatly influenced by the success of Southern California punk bands of the early 1990s and the Grunge aesthetic popularized by bands like Nirvana and Pearl Jam. With the later addition of bassist Todd Burns and drummer Ray Blanco the band re-christened themselves as Insurgence. As Insurgence they began playing famous California venues, including The Roxy Theatre and Whisky a Go Go.

When the band began work on their demo EP they again changed their name, this time to "Home Town Hero". In 2000 and 2001 Home Town Hero joined the Van's Warped Tour, where they attracted the attention of Madonna's Maverick Records label. The band's eponymous major label debut was heavily promoted by Warner Bros. Records, and their single "Questions" received significant airplay in major American radio markets. "Questions" was also included in the video game soundtrack for Legends of Wrestling II.

    Hometown Hero

    by: Loverboy

    We're gonna break away, the engine's hot and running
    We'll take this nowhere town and turn it into something
    We're gonna lose control and set the wheels in motion
    Well, we're staking our claims, yeah, they'll remember our names
    Going down in a blaze of glory, going out in a flash of light
    You know it goes with the territory, when you run the night
    Chorus:
    You want to be a hometown hero, and nothing's standing in your way
    Take it all the way from zero, never fade away
    Now you and I can make it happen, show you what it's all about
    We'll take the night and turn it inside out
    Yeah, inside out
    They say that eagles dare while others only follow
    You've got to raise the stakes and bet against tomorrow
    Storm the barricade and cross that line of fire
    When the damage is done, you know, the legend lives on
    Going down in a blaze of glory, going out in a flash of light
    You know it goes with the territory, when you run the night
    chorus
    (Solo)
    chorus
    You want to be a hometown hero, we'll turn it inside out
    You want to be a hometown hero, we'll turn it inside out
    You want to be a hometown hero
    Yeah
