This is amazing. I've been waiting for something like this to come along for a long time. And it comes at the right time for me. Very dramatic. Lots of changes. Intricate and delicate but still powerful simultaneously. Poetic, substantial, soaring. There are many words that I could use. But it fits me perfectly right now. - Orlando Montoya, Savannah Podcast
"The EP is truly a work of art that you don’t want to turn off."
"To write and perform something so heartfelt is rare in this day and age; that’s why bands like Bonfire Falls rightly deserve the recognition."
"This is a band that has real talent, authentic, raw talent. It’s an added bonus that they sound the same, if not better, live. In an era where artists pump out simplistic, poppy songs just for hits, it’s refreshing to hear such poetic lyrics from a band that clearly gives a shit."
"‘Lifetime’ was an unforgettable journey that I will revisit time and time again." - Setlist Indie Music Company

Bio
Combining powerful, intricate harmonies and lush instrumentation with poetic lyrics, Bonfire Falls creates profound rock: enjoyable, accessible, yet endlessly rewarding upon each listen. Whether dancing jubilantly to the thunderous beat of winning, or strolling along a dirt road with stars over telephone wires, Bonfire Falls will move you long after the music is over.
As individual theatrical artists, Bonfire Falls members hold awards as both performers and composers. Erikka Walsh (violin, vocals) is an original cast member of the Grammy and Tony Award winning musical Once, featuring the music of Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova. Ryan McCurdy (piano, keyboard, guitars, vocals) is a 2016 Innovative Theater Award nominee for his original compositions for the world premiere of Rush by Callie Kimball. In addition to national radio spots and numerous theatrical tours, lead vocalist
Stephen Lyons’ voice has garnered recognition by Tina Shafer for his song, Fall, featured at the New York Songwriter’s Circle competition (home of Grammy winners Norah Jones and Marc Cohn, among numerous others.)
Equally at home as an acoustic trio or full five-piece rock band, Bonfire Falls frequents many of the iconic rock venues in their home base, New York City.
