Wildfire are a duo that started in early 2004. Before they formed, both of them were writing and playing music, but it was only when they put their styles together, they realised they were making something truly inspirational. They have regular jam sessions, were they sit and play, record some songs, and chill out to some awesome music, whilst drawing, talking, or just mellowing out...
