Bio
With the release of their widely anticipated second full length album 7 Billion and a Nameless Somebody, German band FIRE ON DAWSON has truly established their credentials as one of the most talked about rock acts on the European rock music circuit. Mastered by multiple award winning Hollywood sound engineer Stephen Marsh (INCUBUS, KORN, THE HANGOVER), the album was released in a 2 part concert series in Warsaw (PL) and Prague (CZ) in July, 2012 to rave
reviews and critical acclaim.
FIRE ON DAWSON has been making waves in the underground rock music scene since their formation in 2006. Their new album is the follow up to the band's highly successful debut album Prognative (2010), which released at no.1 in both the German and Indian Myspace Rock Charts, while also enjoying top 10 stints in the Progressive Rock charts of Eastern Europe (Russia, Ukraine and Poland) and South America (Brazil, Colombia, Argentina and Chile). The band spent most of 2010 and 2011 in the Worldwide Myspace Progressive Rock charts Top 50, peaking at
no.16 in December 2011.
With their distinctive blend of Progressive and Alternative Rock, the Indian Vocalist-German Instrumentalist combo manage to create lush, melodic landscapes punctuated by intricate timing patterns and subtle rhythm changes. Their energetic and uniquely captivating live stage shows have assisted the rise of the band which has seen them play more than 150 shows in less than 4 years, perform with International music industry heavyweights such as APOCALYPTICA, share the stage with top national acts such as WIRTZ and EMIL BULLS and play in front of 15000
fans on their first tour outside of Europe, the highlight of which being the closing concert at the biggest cultural festival of Asia, MOOD INDIGO in Mumbai where FIRE ON DAWSON joined the selected company of western bands such as KATATONIA, KARNIVOOL and PORCUPINE TREE to have performed at the festival. Their pedigree has not only been acknowledged overseas but also closer to home, with a series of headlining and co-headlining summer festival shows in Germany in 2011 and 2012.
