Every Fire Begins With a Spark...

Fire By Night began when two aspiring singer-songwriters connected and let their
imaginations go wild with the possibility of making the kind of music that flows directly from the soul.

Almost one year ago, front man Michael Walton met lead
guitarist and songwriting partner, E. Schwank while
looking to win his college's battle of the bands.
After learning the set in two hours, Schwank and the
band performed at the battle where they placed a
modest second.

......and that, as they say, was the beginning of a
beautiful friendship.

Not only did the burgeoning musicians have a great
musical connection, but they also had Michael Hoyt
playing solid and soulful bass and Tyler Firth holding
down the rhythm on drums. Fire By Night was already
off to a good start. Eventually, the band, looking for a
full-time drummer, parted ways with Firth, and brought
in drum performance major(jazz geek), Bill Grillo, to fill
the position.

The personalities, conflicts, and experiences of these
young musicians made for fertile creative ground in
the following days of Spring. Within a few months of
meeting, the foursome had already composed about 20+
original songs.

The scope, depth, and diversity of their music are
amazing considering the group's short history. From
the modern funk of Borrowed and Blue to the bluesy,
stomping groove of Dragonfly, Fire By Night stands
poised to attract attention from whoever loves depth
and honesty in their music coupled with poetic and
innovative songwriting. Songs like Bittersweet
Sunset, Photograph, and the forthcoming Aurora
Borealis continue to stretch the band's outlook on how
and why they write their music. "We are constantly
changing," says Walton, "so our approach to life and,
in turn, our approach to music naturally changes with
us."

Recently, with the addition of drummer, Bill Grillo,
the group finished an EP length demo. The guys in
Fire By Night also play out as often as
possible. They are already becoming well known in the
area for their energetic and spiritual performances.
During their live sets, the band is also known to pull
out covers of some classic songs such as,
The Proclaimers' 500 Miles (I'm Gonna Be),
the late, great Dispatch's The General, and their own
acoustic/funk version of The Spin Doctors' Two
Princes. All in all, when this band is playing, the
crowd is either dancing, singing, or mentally undressing the band members (what naughty fans they have!).
So stay tuned, they are coming to your town
soon and chances are they will be here to stay.
