Hailing from Raton, New Mexico in the late 50's, the Fireballs were New Mexico's first Rock & Roll recording band to become internationally known.
Besides their own recordings, Petty recruited the Fireballs as studio musicians for other recording artist projects. Among many, folk singer Carolyn Hester and Arthur Alexander. It was during this time that Petty orchestrated the group through the task of musically enhancing the Buddy Holly 'apartment tapes' which surfaced after Holly's death.
