What's the difference between FM Static and Thousand Foot Krutch? Singer-songwriter Trevor McNevan and drummer Steve Augustine lead both bands, but the former is a side project to the latter. In fact, the public has shown center-stage love for each act's efforts, from FM Static's summery punk-pop to TFK's more autumnal, metallic rock.

More than anything, having two names makes it easier to take some fun creative chances. Like pursuing the idea for a concept album where every lyric is the innermost thought of a soul-searching teenager. When that spark of inspiration entered Trevor's head last year while TFK was on tour with Skillet, he knew Dear Diary was a perfect job for FM Static.

"This is the first concept album I've worked on, and it was a ton of fun," says McNevan, who has also penned hits for tobyMac and Hawk Nelson. "It felt theatrical from the start. I imagined this high school boy, new in town, writing through life's big questions about faith and fitting in as he grows up toward college. He's also falling in love for the first time with a girl from across the street and dealing with how crazy that can be. It's been a while since I was in high school, but I'm still enthralled with all of those politics."

No doubt FM Static listeners-by and large a student audience-will also be enthralled with the spot-on relatable happenings and character confessions of Dear Diary, a project whose special story can only be unlocked as it happens, from song one to song ten.
