 Lost in woods, open road travels or misted coasts, the folk, cinematic reverb sounds of Fire/Works have arrived. The Montreal band of two, Jonathan Peters and David Lagacé are blending vocals as well as self multi-instrumentalists to create music that is to the core; raw, pure, honest talent...

  Lagacé and Peters were on seperate musician paths for several years prior to their encounter. Once Peters took a decision to knuckle down and pursue, he composed songs and kept them underground until entering into the forest... literally. Following a call to friends who lent him their time, material and a remote cabin, it was down to business... and fate. By chance, David Lagacé joined the musical journey in the woods and this became the birthplace of their inspired connection. Armed with strong influences such as Timber Timbre, Bon Iver, Feist and Radiohead, their title was born from sitting around the open camp, fresh air, flowing creativity...and beer. It was agreed in that moment to make greatness, Fire really does Work...

 Listeners have immediately jumped to the comparisons… Damien Rice, Patrick Watson and Coldplay to name a few… but do not assume this is just any other addition to the new age of folk genre. Combining an outdoors inspired duet emerging from the live, underground bustling city of Montreal… there is a rough edge to that pretty scenery.

 And with music this compelling a following has emerged and is rapidly growing. Fire/Works are playing gigs back-to-back and have won several festivals enabling them to follow up their successful EP with a self-released album to astounding reviews. And to add to the awe, this all from a band of less than 2 years old...

 Fire/works to experience it all…. missing, broken & mended again, the band create songs as if they were movies, giving to the cinematic folk label…a sense that it is for an ocean wide, life-stirring soundtrack… or simply a journey for your own inner boat…
