This month, The Mine welcomes Bathgate’s finest, The Fire And I through it’s doors, after successful beginnings to the relationship at the Bainbridge Alt. Stage of Haddowfest.

The Fire And I are an energetic 2 piece band using only Bass and Drums, with occasional synth.

Gordon and Hooligan have molded a very distinctive and powerful sound, often difficult to comprehend from their two members.

Here are some nice things people have said:

"The Fire And I are one of the best bands in Scotland right now."
Resound Scotland

"44 minutes of mind-bending, jaw-dropping musical addiction that's arguably the most sensational thing you've heard come out of the UK indie scene in years"
Dead Earnest

"This record is a sheer delight from beginning to end, combining the very best of unashamedly catchy punks and the depth of post-hardcore into one tidy package. A record not to be missed. (9/10)"
Soundshock.co.uk

"Evoking Biffy Clyro at their most experimental, Blood Red Shoes at their heaviest, and DFA9179 at their most genius, there’s certainly a bright future for these guys."

This date constitutes the last date in their European Tour, in support of their debut album, ‘Stampede Finale’, which is available from all good digital outlets.

Support comes from Bainbridge favourites Hagana (www.facebook.com/Haganaband) and up and coming kids band Virtue (www.myspace.com/virtueonfire)  

All attendees over the age of 18 are invited to the aftershow party, happening upstairs at The Store, 2 minutes round the corner, for some fresh beats and funky juice!
