SpeedFire
SpeedFire is a heavy metal solo project by Mr K, also known from bands as The Underdog Experience and Atlantis.
The emphasis lies on strong, melodic, powerful hard rock songs. Most music consists of original material, but covers by some of my heroes are also performed once in a while as a tribute.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
It started off as a solo project. Nowadays, next to being involved with other bands and projects it's just fun to do and hopefully you will hear more great songs in the future.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Never played live under the name of SpeedFire, but that might happen in the near or distant future. For now it's just a solo project and the main goal is to record songs and distribute them mostly online.
