In 1991 two musicians from Porto, north of Portugal, decided to put into music their own way of life: "party, fun and Rock'n'Roll!" The outcoming of this idea is THE FIRE and since then they've been playing live and amusing their fans with quality hard rock and a perfect sense of performance.After releasing their demo in 1993, they played in the two most famous festivals in their hometown: "Queima das Fitas" and "Noites Ritual Rock".
In 1994 it was released their self-titled first cd. "The Fire" had intense airplay on national radiostations, especially with the single "Summertime Song". A promotional tour with more than 30 dates including shows in Spain and another gig at "Queima das Fitas" in front of 10.000 people - gave the band the experience of capturing an audience since the first minute on stage.In 1998 came the second album - "Burning Rock" - which had excellent reviews from Portuguese, Spanish and even Japanese press. More dates followed the release of the cd, including a performance at Expo 98 in Lisbon.In 2001 they recorded a cover for the "20 Anos de Tarântula" tribute album and played some gigs with bands like Mennen (NL).In the last years, while preparing the release of "Are You Ready?", they never stopped their live shows, sharing the stage with acts like Doro and Gotthard."Are You Ready?" is an hard rock record in which the band shows its admiration for the eighties and still gives it a XXIst century touch. Songs like "2 Loud 2 Proud", "Are You Ready" or "All Night Long" are true rock anthems and can give you an idea of what this band is live:PARTY, FUN & ROCK'N'ROLL!So, are you ready for it?
