🔥 what 🔥
Hedgefire is a mostly indie rock / alt country / new wave 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 The Cure, Elliott Smith, Lyle Lovett, The Phoenix Foundation, Poi Dog Pondering, Pomplamoose, Rocky Votolato, The Shins, The Talking Heads, Wilco, and others.
🔥 who 🔥
Hedgefire has no set roster, but consists of [m]any of Andrew Hedges, Mike Baran, Melody Baran, Valerie Witte, Andrew Dent, craig Alimo, Dale Conboy, Ainsley Sterret, and Justin Pot on woodblock that one time.
