🔥 ¡welcome to the hedgefire experience! 🔥

🔥 what 🔥

Hedgefire is a mostly indie rock cover band borne from an hours-long, post-wedding jam session in May 2023. Our good friend Rudi Pšeničnik named the band. The logo was craig Alimo’s inspired attempt to channel Rudi’s vision into a custom drumhead, which we proudly display at gigs.

We play songs we like from bands/artists including Amy Ray, The Cure, Elliott Smith, Lyle Lovett, The Phoenix Foundation, Poi Dog Pondering, Pomplamoose, Rocky Votolato, The Shins, Wilco, and others.

🔥 who 🔥

Hedgefire has no set roster, but consists of any (sometimes all) of Andrew Hedges, Mike Baran, Melody Baran, Valerie Witte, craig Alimo, Ainsley Sterret, and Justin Pot on woodblock that one time.

In the future, there may be others who play with us. Do you know any bass players?
