“We live in a time of rapidly destructive (and so often man-made) wildfires in many parts of this planet. Singing a song that says "we need a wildfire" felt cautionary-but enticing, as we explored the many metaphors that "forest fire " could represent. We came to believe it is about the burning of the ego, the take down of destructive habits and destructive relationships, even destructive sides of self. In a time where everyone is on one side of the coin or the other, in a highly polarized nation, a burning symbolizes a great reset. A death and rebirth cycle. We hope you enjoy our take on this track as much as we have enjoyed stretching into its different sounds.”
