Man's Red Fire
We are Man's Red Fire. We are a band that has four musicians in it, and two play electric guitar, one plays bass guitar, and the other one plays the drums. We are based in the Houston area, and we love to kick out the jams.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Formed in Winter 2003.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
We play out in Houston area clubs, but are willing to do other dates in the TX area if the gods will it so.
