Signalfire: noun. A distress signal from a person or parties indicating immediate help is required.

Back in 2009, the boys of Milwaukee rock band Signalfire called it quits. After a few years, rock devotees lit a signal fire of their own. It was a desperate cry for help from weary fans who’d only had generic rock music to satisfy their appetite for good tunes since the band packed it in. Their distress call couldn’t be ignored any longer. In 2014, Signalfire reunited to answer their fans prayers for riffs, grooves, and tunes.

Role call. Andrew Ballard. Vox and Git. Wails melodies like he’s sinking to the bottom of Perdition.
Brett Dumstrey. Bass. Distributor of infectious grooves.
AC. Drums. Beats the skins like they owe him money and lays down thundering beats.

2014 was a banner year for the rock and roll torchbearers. April saw them release their whiskey-fueled magnum opus, ‘Mrs. Saturday Night’, their first album as a trio. What’s it sound like? It’s the audio equivalent of your fifth shot and suddenly everyone at the bar is looking real good. They’re jams that get under your fingernails and just won’t wash out. It’s good time music; melody and rhythm that transcends borders and cultures.

Receiving attention from the press for their standout single ‘Let It Out’, Signalfire were honored with a featured artist spot on Reverbnation for a week. Their new rock jams led them to a prime slot at the world’s largest music festival, Summerfest, in their hometown of Milwaukee. Not to deny other cities a taste of Mrs. Saturday Night live and in person, Signalfire then hit the road and shared the love with fans all over the Midwest before taking a victory lap around Milwaukee, culminating in a main stage opening slot for national touring act Tantric.

With epic riffs, intoxicating grooves and timeless melodies, Grace Under Water is one of a kind
