Phily Says: greetings. How are you guys today?



Fiona Says: we are good thanks! we are working on some tunes and lyrics and hoping that the rain goes away so Dave can play more basketball haha



Phily Says: Is that typical of Phoenix Fire. Go shoot some hoops and then get your rhyme on?

Sounds like a NYC street corner.



Fiona Says: Yeh totally, the Fresh Prince of Bel Air has nothing on us haha!



Phily Says: haha thats far better



Fiona Says: Apart from when dave got in a fight one time and his parents sent him to his auntie and uncles house :)



Phily Says: Rockin



I drifted upon your music a few months ago in Auntie Annie's and absolutely loved it. Where were ya hiding before hand?



Maybe I simply wasn't looking hard enough?



Fiona Says: Think of us like Wally lol.. no we've been on the scene for a while now, but we've been keeping ourselves under the radar until we had the tunes ready!



Phily Says: They totally are now!



Wide Awake is great.



You take delight in the epic pop tune don't ya?



Fiona Says: thanks dude!



Phily Says: who's yer major influences?



Fiona Says: We all have very differnet influences in the band! Its strange how so many different music tastes can come together! But I think the main influences come from The Frames, Coldplay, Radiohead and of course Lady Gaga.

Fiona Says: when it comes down to it, i think as a band we want tunes that will move people, and make an impact! thats what we love about wide awake in particular.



Phily Says: i can totally hear a few of those in there well apart from Lady Gaga but maybe thats just a fashion influence



i think the duel vocals are very important in creating that emotional impact how long have you two been singing together?



Fiona Says: haha nah Im just kiddin! She is pretty amazing in her own way though.. thats where Jav our drummer gets his fashion influences from :)



Phily Says: it sounds weird to say but even though you are a guy and girl it seems like you have twinned voices. Thats the sign of a good band you know.



Fiona Says: Dave and I have been friends for about 10 years now! And we started singing together about 8years ago in school (we went to the same school) so I think vocally we developed a certain chemistry.. when we're writing I don't even have to tell him what Im thinking because most of the time he sings exactly what I had in mind! Its very strange!



Phily Says: Northern Irelands first Telekinetic pop band. Just don't go bending any spoons.



Phily Says: right our short time together is nearly up



Fiona Says: Just you wait boy! aww:(



Phily Says: what's on the horizon for Phoenix Fire over the next few months?



Fiona Says: the next coming months will be busy for PF as we've to write for the next recording session at the end of Feb, and we have a few new venues we'll be playing - Cloister's Bar in Ballynahinch & Cellar Bar in Draperstown! - And then Headlining Radar in Feb aswell.. We are currently working on the live show too.. its all go go go for PF! Busy, but fun :) So keep an eye out!



Phily Says: Glorious! Lets leave on a telekenitic manner. David what is Fiona thinking and vice versa.



Fiona Says: ok, fiona is thinkin, my what a descent chap dave is! dave is think is thinkin, im hungry! lol



Phily Says: haha class I'm off! Thanks for the chat guys. See ya's soon.
