Proposed Forte (vocal group) edit (site blacklisted)

Fernando Varela returned to Florida in mid-2014 to embark on a solo tour.[1] Original member Hana Ryu rejoined Forte in 2015,[2] and the men began work on their second album, The Future Classics, which was funded by a crowdsourcing campaign though PledgeMusic.[3] The album is scheduled for digital release in December 2015, with CDs released in January.[4]

The Future Classics was conceived as Forte's spin on "the popular music of today", including such songs as "Burn", "Collide" and "Free Fallin'".[3][5] Guitarist and producer Zach Page said the idea came after FORTE was marketed as "adult-contemporary and easy-listening, which we felt missed the point of the group."[a] Instead, the follow-up album's "production muscle must overload the audience in a way that captivates it—as they did on AGT."[7]
