The Fire Tonight

I would like for The Fire Tonight to be prolific enough for me to delusionally consider us the only new music you’ll ever need. The delusions will have to wait for another day though.

After getting into a very interesting discussion about the process of discovering new music with both with members of The Restoration and The Fire Tonight I decided to let you know where I go for new music.

After weeks of pre-production, tracking and mixing the recording process for The Restoration is finally over.  There a few more technical things to be done before the album is ready for your hands (not to mention art and package design) but Stephen’s work producing and my work tracking/mixing is complete.  We are very proud of the work we’ve done and look forward to everyone being able to hear and enjoy it as well!

Now that we’ve gotten that business out of the way we are on a collision course with The Fire Tonight EP and boy, is it going to be awesome.  After doing some soul searching about why we are even bothering with this whole music thing we all realized that we really enjoy it.  We like performing, we like writing, we like recording.  To that end we are pursuing the fun-factor for this batch of songs by including  an omage to ridiculous classic rock, some genre influences that we would have previously said didn’t sound like The Fire Tonight, and more surprises that we are bursting at the seams to tell you!

I know we keep talking about the album without sharing specifics because, like many groups, we don’t want to let the cat out of the bag too early.  So what would you guys like to get before it comes out?  What are some things that bands you like have done to treat their fans before they released something?  As much as we are making this to have fun we’re also making it because we want to do something for you guys.  So let’s open up a discussion.

No One Is Fine took home the Readers Choice award for best album of the year in Columbia’s Free Times Newspaper. We are really excited and extremely grateful to everyone that voted for us!!
