We have been together since August 2008 and have had successes such as playing Leeds and Reading Festivals as well as a week long tour of the UK including Manchester Academy 3 and the Rhythm Factory, London. We have had headline slots around the UK including the legendary venue Fibbers, York which has hosted many established bands in recent years. We have been of great interest to BBC Introducing including a live session for BBC Radio York (Matt Seymour) and BBC 6 Music (Tom Robinson) along with many general radio plays, and have also had plays on BBC Radio one and Radio One Northern Ireland with Rory McConnell and Huw Stephens.

"As much as it might get banded about, it's really not that frequently that you come across an unsigned act that appears to be on the edge of a breakthrough. Surprise... Fire look to be teetering on just that cusp." - Tom Keighley, Leeds Music Scene Review ....“EVERY generation of Ryedale bands has one that seems to take that extra step. The last generation had My Friend Juliet and, of course, One Night Only, and this time it’s surely Surprise...Fire.” - Sam Meegan, Gazette and Herald. ....“Their music, which caught the ear of BBC Radio York's Introducing producer Matt Seymour, has been influenced by alternative and old-school rock and bands like Fall Out Boy and Bloc Party.” - Joel James, BBC Blast reporter. ....“Saw these play the BBC Introducing stage and was pleasantly surprised. Well worth keeping an eye on for the future.” - Reading Festival Bystander. ....“Surprise... Fire is quite a good treat. When their myspace said to expect a party, a party was what we got.” - Jay, blogspot critic. ...."no-one's ever had this much fun with guitars." "there were moments that reveal a much larger potential for mixing influences and developing something new.” - Leeds Music Scene reporter.
