Out of Kemptville Ontario comes the three piece band Fire and Neon. Fusing together various styles such as indie, rock, dance and electronica, Fire and Neon has created a sound that appeals to just about everyone.

In December of 2008, Phillip Konopka (keys, vocals) and David Wijsman (guitar,vocals), friends since since high school, started jamming and writing songs that not only expressed each individual’s unique musical backgrounds, but also combined them to create something fresh and energetic. From Depeche Mode to Coldplay, Phoenix to DJ Tiesto (and all things in between) the sounds came together to form what is now Fire and Neon. Soon after it was obvious that a drummer was essential to the make up of the band to provide a more complete sound. Andrew Hunt (drums,vocals), a friend of the two, joined as drummer in the March of 2009.

In the two years since Fire and Neon has formed they have garnered a dedicated fan base in the Ottawa area and have gained many fans in every city they have visited. Equipped with dynamic drumming and guitar lines, catchy synthesizers and vocal hooks accented by three part harmonies, it’s just so hard to say no. With their unique sound and energetic stage presence, Fire and Neon have proven to deliver a stadium effect in an intimate environment.
