Band leader and chief songwriter Dennis Liegghio lost his father to suicide when he was 14 years old. After more than a decade of struggling with depression from this tragic loss he made a choice to turn his life around. He decided to find a way to help others. He wrote a song called No Resolve and formed the Student Driver Band. Dennis soon was invited to perform his song at local Survivors of Suicide chapter meetings and events. He felt fortunate to become more involved with his community.
However he quickly decided this wasn't enough - so he created the nonprofit organization NoResolve.org and is currently developing a first class benefit/event: Breaking the Silence... complete with a sit down dinner, premium open bar, a silent auction, a 50/50 raffle and most importantly - live music, featuring Student Driver Band (Detroit), Robbie Conaway (Chicago) and Liz Stahler (Boston). This will not be a somber event; but rather a celebration of life, in memory of those we love and honor, but have tragically lost to suicide.
