Hailing from Tulsa, Oklahoma, Dwight Twilley teamed with Phil Seymour in the Dwight Twilley Band, hitting gold with their very first single, 1975’s “I’m On Fire” – lauded by the San Francisco Chronicle as “The best debut single by an American rock band ever.”  But, a combination of dumb label decisions and bad luck prevented the band’s career from properly taking off.  That didn’t stop Twilley – he’s into his fifth decade of making melodic rock n’ roll – and he’s just released a brand new record called Soundtrack.  Inspired by a movie that's currently in production about his life, Twilley turned inward to write 12 new songs about his long journey and ups & downs in the music business.  Icon Fetch talks with the "father of power pop" about his band's experience playing on Dick Clark's American Bandstand, the personal nature of these new songs, and the passing of longtime friend and guitarist Bill Pitcock,IV.
