Count To Fire were inspired by a love of great American alt.country bands such as Wilco and My Morning Jacket, and a frustration that their records and gigs never came to town. Will Odgers (vocals and guitar) and Joe Baxter (bass and backing vocals) formed Count To Fire in Spring 2006. Working together in Exeter’s Martian Records and sharing their own self-penned songs they realised that together they had what it takes to make their own musical magic. Having caught the eye of acclaimed Canadian producer Colin Cripps (Kathleen Edwards, Bryan Adams) the band worked closely with him to complete a new set of songs at the unique Catherine North Studios. This studio (a converted church complete with spectacular stained glass) has been used by the likes of Josh Ritter, Dallas Green and Feist. With limited time available the band worked and lived in the studio for eight days straight to create an album which is both organic and irresistible.
