Firekind is pleased to announce the debut of their first album. The
new alt rock band from the UK launched What I Have Found is Already Lost on July 17,
2015.
Firekind is comprised of brother Jas and Dan Morris. Firekind’s debut album is loaded
with songs that came from personal experiences that were given an edgy flair. Jas Morris
says, “A lot of the songs on this album deal
with the death of mine [Jas] and Dan’s
father. Not so much about wallowing in
loss and self pity, but by coming out the
other side (of grief). Our Dad was such
massive part in our lives, he’s the reason
why we’re even musicians and he was in a
band with us for 8-9 years, then managed
the band before he died.”
Though the band has been playing together
for many years, this is their first time
recording as the band Firekind and without
their father to guide them. Firekind was
lucky enough to find guidance in another
form – an amazing producer. The band flew
to Los Angeles in order to have their album produced by legendary musician and
producer Alain Johannes. The members of the band were humbled by the fact that this
legend wanted to work with them and that they were in Los Angeles.
Johannes guided Firekind
every step of the way and
used many of his Hollywood
connections to make the
production of the album as
easy as possible with the band
being so far away from home.
Being a new band on the
scene, Firekind quickly found
that it would be very
expensive to travel with some
of their favourite recording equipment, such as amps, and Johannes was able to quickly get an exact replacement
from Dave Grohl for Jas to use. Johannes inspired the band members and they were able
to fully engage in producing an amazing, edgy rock record that represents who they are as
a band.
What I Have Found is Already Lost is now available on iTunes and SoundCloud. More
