🎸🔥 Were you a Cinderella fan? This deep dive explores how a band from Philadelphia went from playing small clubs to selling millions of records—all thanks to Jon Bon Jovi spotting them in a club. We’ll look at their debut album Night Songs, how they landed a tour with David Lee Roth, and why their drummer wasn’t actually on the record. Plus, we dig into how Tom Keifer almost dropped out of school and what made Night Songs one of the best hard rock debuts of the 1980s. 🤘✨
