Wildfires is pumped as shit to announce the addition of Adam Harris to the band! Adam has been coming to our shows for quite a while now. When we decided to trek onward as a trio, it wasn't because we felt that we couldn't make use of a second guitar player, it was more circumstantial, and all about finding the right man for the job with all the same goals and influences in mind. With that said, we enjoyed our time as a trio and the EP we recorded and are about to release (still saving money). We decided from the get go of the trio lineup that if we came across someone who we felt was a perfect fit for the band, there would be no question. After 2 proper "auditions", and much time spent together hanging out, having drinks, eating amazing food cooked by Adam's girlfriend, geeking out on mutual favorite bands, and sitting at his house riffing on combo amps, we decided that Adam is indeed the perfect fit that we've perhaps always needed.
Yesterday we ended up hanging out and jamming for 5 hours at Adam's storage shed. I don't think Wildfires has ever had a 5 hour jam/hang session, so needless to say, the chemistry, the ideas, the communication, it's all there. We all feel comfortable telling each other "why don't you play something else", and it's great to finally be able to say that.
We've written a brand new song titled, "Aftermath of The Sociopath" which spans more genre changes in one song than we have ever touched on, and although anyone would say this about their music, I honestly believe that this is the most unique and original material we've written thus far. We're super excited as to the future of the band, and to all relocate together in a year or a little more. Adam will start playing with us in March, and before too long we should have quite a few more new songs written. See you all soon!
