Main Street Free Fall

Original rock band, formerly billed as AJ Stone, with AJ on guitar and vocals and Ryan on bass.

Main Street Free Fall is an original rock band that used to perform as AJ Stone. The band changed its name once AJ and bassist Ryan saw they were building a real group, not a solo act with hired players. AJ sings and plays guitar and books the shows. Ryan plays bass, and Kyle Knight joins on guitar when he can, adding parts that bring the songs to life. The band was recording at Kyle's home studio and planning an album to close the AJ Stone chapter before writing more songs together.
