John Ondrasik, known as Five for Fighting, is an American singer-songwriter and pianist born in 1965 in Los Angeles. With a background in piano from his music-teacher mother and a UCLA degree in Applied Science, he initially chased glam metal before pivoting to introspective soft rock. His 2001 hit "Superman (It's Not Easy)" became a post-9/11 anthem, earning a Grammy nod, followed by hits like "100 Years" and "The Riddle." With over 3 million records sold, his music blends emotional piano ballads with themes of life and unity. A passionate philanthropist, he supports veterans through USO tours and the Gary Sinise Foundation, and has taken bold stances, like his 2021 song "Blood on My Hands" critiquing the Afghanistan withdrawal and advocating for Israel post-2023 Hamas attacks.
