Wildfire

Smokin' Hot Bluegrass!

About Me

Individually, the members of Wildfire are considered some of the best players in the industry. Together, they produce sparks that remind the listener of their passion for bluegrass music.
Robert Hale, Chris Davis, Curt Chapman, Daniel Grindstaff and Brandon Godman play without limits and they definitely don't hold back. Their creative, spontaneous and driving arrangements create an excitement for the listener that is unmatched.
Wildfire’s set list reaches into bluegrass and country’s rich traditional catalog with solid arrangements that remind you of the first time you heard it – the sound that excited the soul. Mixed with original numbers and telling ballads – it’s a journey that will spur a series of emotion.
All coming from a lifetime submersed in bluegrass and country music, they are inspired by the greats of their genre, J.D. Crowe, Jimmy Martin, Bill Monroe, Tony Rice, Keith Whitley and more. Wildfire assembled in 2000 and quickly become one of the most talked about groups in the industry. With three band projects, solo recordings and chart topping songs, this band has proved it’s longevity in a competitive market.
Chart Hits include: “Can’t Have One Without The Other”, “Lord Knows I’m Drinking”, “The Last Song”, “Rough Edges”, “Maria (Love To See You Again)”, “I Beg You Little Darling Not To Cry”.
