About The Firebrand

The Firebrand are a powerful Manchester 4-piece with indie-blues stylings. The 4 members of the band have been pulled together by forces unknown and the result is an explosion of infectious melodies, floor trembling beats and songs that will latch onto your brain and never let go. Already making a name for themselves on the Manchester music scene having played some of the city's best venues, The Firebrand are a band to look out for. With an abundance of original, energetic and catchy tunes The Firebrand live is an experience you won't want to miss so its lucky for you that we will be playing as many gigs as we can fit into the year.
We are currently working our fingers to the bone premoting our first demo EP available here to listen to so watch this space for all our latest news and updates!
