Strangefire is an Orlando based band featuring Tak on keys/synth, Mike Felmy on guitar and David Hughs on bass along with whoever else happens to pop in for recording and gigs. With former member Mike Ash Strangefire released 5 CDs...Fan the Flames, which defined the Strangefire sound and launched the band to instant local recognition. Their second release, Zipper Confetti made them a worldwide force to be reckoned with, with heavy web promotion and internet radio play sending them to #1 on several web charts with every song they uploaded. Their third release, Shazbot Munkie found the band on a much softer plain. However, their fourth cd, GUH? which could just possibly be their strangest yet, found the band in transition with the use of more beats and sampling and more digital formats. Their final CD was Ezion which took the band back to their roots with the use of multiple effects and use of sampling.

Band History:
Tak and Mike met in 2003. They found each had an interest in music and both played an instrument. Mike had written several songs and Tak joined in on keyboard and the Strangefire sound was born. They opened S&M Studios in Ft. Worth Tx. in 2004 and recorded non-stop for 6 mo. After recording over 100 demos they chose the best and released Fan The Flames to rave reviews locally. Another 50 or so demos and they were ready for the release of Zipper Confetti. They disbanded in 2008 and are both pursuing other projects. Mike is with decaying orbit and Tak can be found here as Strangefire.
